JD Vance Claims Trump Admin Is ‘Guilty’ of ‘Mishandling’ Epstein Files

During his June 16 appearance on The ViewVance admitted he was “frankly kind of a conspiracy theorist on the Epstein stuff.”

“I think that it’s crazy that you had this guy, a s– predator, who was hanging out with a lot of very wealthy and powerful people, that really bothered me,” he told the panel of co-hosts.

While Vance conceded that “nobody knows exactly what happened” unless they were there for the things that allegedly happened, he still hoped for “full transparency” surrounding the situation.

He further claimed that Trump, 80, had been “very frustrated” by Democrats and the theories that he was allegedly involved.

“The president was frustrated about that, absolutely,” he said at the time. “But eventually, ‘You know what? Let’s just get everything out there. Let’s have this out in the public.’ And he actually called the senators. I was there. He called the senators and said, ‘You know what? Pass this bill, I’ll sign it.'”
