Jon Stewart: ‘Classic’ Trump Distractions Barrage Won’t Quell MAGA Epstein ‘Revolt’
UNITED STATES, JUL 15 – Jon Stewart criticized Trump as his MAGA supporters revolt over the unfulfilled promise of Epstein files, with polls showing nearly 40% of Republicans dissatisfied, Stewart said.
- Jon Stewart strongly criticized President Donald Trump on The Daily Show in early July 2025 for backtracking on releasing Jeffrey Epstein files.
