A FURIOUS Donald Trump has lashed out at the "bulls**t Epstein murder hoax" - and is even more enraged by his own supporters falling for it.
The President hit out at "radical left democrats", who he claims pedal the conspiracy theory, after Ghislaine Maxwell's family said they would try a new strategy to free her from jail.

Trump has lashed out at the Epstein murder theory
Credit: The Mega Agency
In a scathing ramble on Truth Social, Trump said: "In a scathing ramble on Truth Social, he said: "The Radical Left Democrats have hit pay dirt, again!"
He blamed the Democrats, and specifically Hunter Biden, for a range of conspiracy theories - including the Steele Dossier and the "Laptop from Hell".
And said his past MAGA supporters "bought into this 'bullshit,' hook, line, and sinker".
Venting his frustration that the Epstein files continue to attract attention, he thundered: "All these people want to talk about, with strong prodding by the Fake News and the success stared Dems, is the Jeffery Epstein Hoax."
The US Department of Justice (DoJ) and FBI's decision to close the Epstein inquiry has sparked fury among Trump's base.
His MAGA camp has been left divided over a lack of clarity regarding the release of the hyped files in Epstein's sex trafficking investigation.
The DoJ last week announced that Epstein died by suicide - although conspiracy theories are to the contrary.
They added that there was no 'incriminating client list' to be revealed to the public - and no further revelations would be made regarding the case.
US Attorney General Pam Bondi had suggested in February that Epstein's supposed client list was sitting on her desk waiting for review.
Though last week she appeared to suggest she'd been referring generally to the Epstein case file, not a client list.
Bondi said: "I did an interview on Fox, and it's been getting a lot of attention because I said I was asked a question about the client list, and my response was, it's sitting on my desk to be reviewed.
"Meaning the file, along with the JFK, MLK files as well. That's what I meant by that."
Meanwhile, Trump insisted the much-hyped documents are "pretty boring" amid a slew of conspiracies surrounding the death of Epstein - and his so-called client list.

Get your act together on immigration, Trump tells Europe as he lands in Scotland
Mr Trump is in the country for a four-day visit to both of his golf clubs in Aberdeen and Ayrshire. Donald Trump speaks to the media after arriving in Scotland (Jacquelyn Martin/AP) Landing at around 8.30pm on Friday, the president was greeted by Scottish Secretary Ian Murray before speaking to reporters. Asked about illegal immigration – which successive UK governments have sought to curb – Mr Trump said: 'On immigration, you better get your act together. 'You're not going to have Europe anymore, you've got to get your act together. 'As you know, last month we had nobody entering our country – nobody, (we) shut it down.' The president spoke to journalists as he disembarked the plane (Jane Barlow/PA) He added: 'You've got to stop this horrible invasion that's happening to Europe.' Immigration, Mr Trump said, was 'killing Europe'. Some European leaders, he continued, 'have not let it happen' and are 'not getting the proper credit they should', though the president did not say who he was talking about. Mr Trump said: 'Many countries in Europe, some people, some leaders, have not let it happen, and they're not getting the proper credit they should.' Trump supporters gather at Prestwick Airport ahead of US President Donald Trump's arrival (Jane Barlow/PA) The president also praised Sir Keir Starmer ahead of a meeting between the two at one of his courses in the coming days, describing him as a 'good man'. 'I like your Prime Minister, he's slightly more liberal than I am – as you probably heard – but he's a good man. He got a trade deal done,' he said. 'You know, they've been working on this deal for 12 years, he got it done – that's a good deal, it's a good deal for the UK.' The president's motorcade – which contained more than two dozen vehicles – passed a small group of protesters as he entered his Turnberry golf club. The Trump motorcade on the A77 in Maybole, South Ayrshire, as it arrives at his Turnberry golf resort (Robert Perry/PA) Mr Trump also suggested he would be meeting Sir Keir 'tomorrow evening', although it is understood the pair will not meet until Monday. As well as the Prime Minister, Scottish First Minister John Swinney will meet with the president, as will European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen, who confirmed on X she will come to Scotland on Sunday in a bid to hash out a trade deal between the US and Europe. Mr Trump told journalists there was a 'good 50/50 chance' of a deal being struck, adding that it would be the 'biggest deal of them all'. The president and Sir Keir are expected to discuss potential changes to the UK-US trade deal which came into force last month. Donald Trump waves as he disembarks from Air Force One (Jacquelyn Martin/AP) Mr Swinney has pledged to 'essentially speak out for Scotland'. Speaking as he boarded Air Force One in the US, Mr Trump said he would be having dinner with the Prime Minister at Turnberry, before 'going to the oil capital of Europe, which is Aberdeen'. He said: 'We're going to have a good time. I think the Prime Minister and I get along very well.' Police on horseback outside the perimeter of Turnberry golf course in South Ayrshire (Robert Parry/PA) Mr Trump added: 'We're going to be talking about the trade deal that we made and maybe even approve it.' He also told journalists he was 'looking forward' to meeting with the 'Scottish leader' Mr Swinney, describing him as a 'good man'. During his time in Scotland, the president is also likely to spark a number of protests, with concerns being raised about how such demonstrations are policed. Police Scotland has called in support from other forces in the UK to help bolster officer numbers, though senior officers and the organisation which represents the rank-and-file have accepted Mr Trump's visit will have an impact.

Donald Trump 'loves standing on the soil of Scotland', Ian Murray reveals
The UK Government minister was the first person to greet the president in Scotland as he begins his visit to the country. Donald Trump has said he 'loves standing on the soil of Scotland' after landing in the country on Friday evening, according to the Scottish Secretary. Ian Murray told the PA news agency what the US President's first words were after disembarking from Air Force One in Prestwick. The UK Government minister was the first person to greet the president in Scotland as he begins his visit to the country. Speaking after meeting the American leader, Mr Murray told PA: 'The president came off the flight, and I said, 'Mr president, welcome to Scotland – the home country of your dear mother', and he said, 'It's great to be here, I always love standing on the soil of Scotland'. 'I said, 'I hope you're looking forward to a bit of downtime with some golf this weekend', and he said, 'Yes'. And I said, 'Well, we've whipped up a bit of a wind for you to make it a bit more competitive', and he went, 'I'm looking forward to it'.' Mr Murray said Mr Trump was given a warm reception as he got off his presidential plane. Hundreds gathered on the Mound overlooking Prestwick Airport for the president's arrival. A Trump flag was flown while a few spectators wore 'Make America Great Again' hats, although many of those attending were locals and aviation enthusiasts, including some who had travelled from England. Mr Murray said: 'Spotters hills, as it's called, where all the plane spotters come to Prestwick, was absolutely full. 'You could see that from the tarmac and as Air Force One came in, people were snapping away on their photographs. 'To see all that happening is quite a spectacle in itself. 'It's really good to have that kind of focus on Scotland.' Mr Trump will meet Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer during his trip to discuss the UK-US trade deal as Britain hopes to be spared from the president's tariff regime. The Scottish Secretary said: 'Really, the purpose of this weekend, the purpose of greeting the president off the plane, the purpose of the Prime Minister's relationship with the president is to build that close relationship, to make sure that that old alliance is nurtured, and to do that for the benefit of the national interest, which is about jobs and growth here in the UK, and particularly Scotland.' Mr Trump will meet Scottish First Minister John Swinney during his trip as he opens a new golf course in Aberdeenshire. Before flying to Prestwick, Mr Trump said in Washington that he was 'looking forward' to meeting Mr Swinney, describing him as a 'good man' – the same phrase he used for the Prime Minister after landing in Scotland. Asked about the president's relationship with the UK, Mr Murray said: 'The Prime Minister has taken a very pragmatic approach to the relationship with the president of the United States, because it's in our national interest to do so, whether it be on defence, security, trade, cultural, historic ties. 'It's a historic alliance, and that alliance has to be nurtured and continue through to the future, because it's quite clear that our relationship with United States is good for jobs and growth here in Scotland and across the UK. 'The Prime Minister knows that, and knows that working very closely with the US is in our national interest.' Asked about protests, which are expected across the country, Mr Murray said people had a right to demonstrate, adding: 'Freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and freedom to protest is a key cornerstone of both countries, America and the UK, and the right to be able to protest if they so wish to so.'

With Mr Trump's motorcade nearing the resort, one lone supporter stood with a star spangled banner tied to a lamppost to welcome the president. 'I'm just here to support the man,' he said. He also turned out to welcome 'The Beast' the last time it carried Mr Trump to the area. 'The beast is amazing,' he said. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Local businesses reported constant activity in the area throughout yesterday, with roads blocked off and a heavy police presence. Another Trump supporter said he had known for a long time that the president would be coming because all the rooms in the Turnberry resort, costing up to £500 a night, had been blocked to bookings. The US president's motorcade – which contained more than two dozen vehicles – entered his Turnberry golf resort at around 9.30pm, flanked by Police Scotland vehicles and ambulance crews. A group of protesters waved placards as the president's motorcade passed on its way to the hotel. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Julie Nelson, from Glasgow, said: 'He doesn't represent our values in Scotland. He is absolutely, totally, everything we hate.' Graeme Miller, also from Glasgow, added: 'The man's here, he's deluded. He seems to think Scotland loves him. David Tennant has pointed out we really don't." They said more people would have turned out to protest against Mr Trump's arrival if access to the area was not so controlled. Meanwhile, Sarah McKinnon and Emma Bailey took to the beach at Croy Shore, north of Turnberry, and dug a message in the sand reading 'Free Palestine' and encouraged others to create their own 'protest art' along the coastline. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Ms Bailey said Mr Trump's flightpath was over that beach, and "we want him to see this message wherever he goes. Even small acts can mean a lot". "There are words from politicians for Gaza but there's a real lack of action by Trump and those in power," she told the BBC. Ms McKinnon said: "I grew up here and I'm not happily that Donald Trump has power and influence here. "We're just two mums on the beach and want to send him a message. We want to turn feelings into action." Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Police had warned ahead of Mr Trump's arrival that the visit to Scotland will 'undoubtedly stretch' resources. Chief Superintendent Rob Hay, president of the Association of Scottish Police Superintendents (Asps), it would require a 'significant operation across the country over many days' from Police concerns have also been raised by the Scottish Police Federation (SPF) – the body which represents rank and file officers. Mr Hay said the visit 'will require the Police Service of Scotland to plan for and deliver a significant operation across the country over many days'. He added: 'This will undoubtedly stretch all our resources from local policing divisions to specialist and support functions such as contact, command and control.' Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Police superintendents and chief superintendents will have 'key leadership roles' for the visit, he added, saying they would be taking responsibility for areas such as planning and resourcing, intelligence gathering, command and control communications, armed operations, public order, and other specialist functions. Mr Hay urged the public to be aware of the 'significant demands that will be placed on policing services during this period' – adding these result from not only the Presidential visit but the 'many popular events that Scotland hosts in the summer months, which bring thousands of tourists to our country and rely upon partnerships with policing to support their safe delivery'. SPF general secretary David Kennedy has warned the police response to the visit could impact on the service it provides to the public in Scotland. He said: 'Anyone who says it won't affect it (policing in Scotland), I can't believe that's the case. It will affect it. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'You may be waiting in the past for so many hours for a police officer to arrive, that could double now, you may be waiting for more time for them to arrive. 'Obviously, emergency calls will take priority, but it will affect communities in Scotland. 'We've been asking long and weary to have more police officers in our communities in Scotland and all this does is take them away from that at this time.' The Stop Trump Coalition has said it is planning a series of protests across Scotland over the coming days. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Campaigner Alena Ivanova said: 'Donald Trump may shake hands with our leaders, but he's no friend of Scotland. We, the people of Scotland, see the damage he has done - to democracy and working people in the US, to the global efforts to tackle the climate crisis, to the very principles of justice and humanity. 'As ICE agents destroy families and neighbourhoods in the US, we here in Scotland are welcoming those that want to join our communities. As he dreams of rivieras built on the bones of Palestinians, we demand an end to the genocide.
