ALBAWABA - Several clips have gone viral on social media after capturing alleged Trump supporters burning their MAGA hats after the US President's recent remarks regarding Jeffrey Epstein, his notorious island, and client list. 

Reports about Jeffrey Epstein were reignited by the US Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) after they revealed that he committed suicide during his prison sentence and didn't have a client list for his notorious island.

In addition to its official claims, the DOJ released a video that captured Esptein in his cell alone during the night he died, revealing no foul play or an external factor.

However, the closure of years of speculation, conspiracy theories, and political tensions didn't sit well with many individuals, sparking more debate on social media.

In response to those speculations, Donald Trump took to his Truth Social account with a tabloid-like post, accusing "crooked Hillary," Obama, and other political figures from the Biden administration of creating the Epstein files and conning the world with the "Russia, Russia, Hoax." 

He wrote that "selfish people" are trying to harm MAGA, as he described it as a "PERFECT Administration," urging his supporters to let US Attorney General Pam Bondi do her job. 

Content creator Philip DeFranco wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter), "The more Trump talks about Epstein, the weirder and guiltier he comes off."

He added, "Even his supporters on Truth Social are like wtf are you talking about."

Trump's Truth Social post turned many heads, which reignited rumors about his link to the Epstein Client List and comments saying that the US President is "acting guilty." 

His post also triggered a series of comments from individuals urging the president to "release the files" and accusing Pam Bondi of "lying" to them.

Trump's recent political tensions and links to Epstein also triggered a movement from alleged supporters, who took to social media with videos of them burning their MAGA (Make America Great Again) hats.
