Rep. Liu said at a press conference:
As Chairman Aguilar said, we hear a lot from our constituents on a variety of issues, but one that doesn’t seem to be brought up is the Epstein files. These files have been made public and Donald Trump has been in the spotlight on this, right? There are photos of him and Jeffrey Epstein.
He has been on many planes with Epstein and the girls. He is on recorded phone calls with Epstein. One of the most trending hashtags on Twitter right now is about Trump and Epstein. I’m not going to repeat the hashtag because we’re in a dignified forum. But I encourage you to take a look because it’s so disturbing.
And this shows that Donald Trump is unfit to be president. By the way, he has been convicted of sexual assault in a civil court and 34 felonies in another court. Donald Trump should drop out of the race.
Trump has not been charged with any crime, but his name is also in Epstein’s file in connection with the child sex trafficking ring. For any other politician, this would be a critical moment, but the media refuses to cover Trump and Epstein. That’s partly because Trump has not been charged with a crime, but also because the media has become completely desensitized to Trump’s criminal behavior and is ignoring or normalizing it.
