The president argued with CNN's Caitlin Collins when she asked questions about survivors of Epstein's abuse, criticizing her for "not smiling."
President Donald Trump on Tuesday called for the U.S. to move on from its focus on the Epstein files being released by the Department of Justice.
"I think it's really time for the country to get on to something else. Now that nothing came out about me, other than it was a conspiracy against me, literally, by Epstein and other people," the president said. "But I think it's time now for the country to maybe get on to something else, like healthcare, or something the people care about."
The president then lashed out at CNN's Caitlin Collins, when she pressed the issue of survivors of Epstein's abuse.
"What would you say to people who feel they haven't gotten justice? Collins asked. "What would you say to the survivors who say they haven't gotten justice?"
"You are the worst reporter," the president said. "CNN has no ratings because of people like you. She's a young woman. I don't think I've ever seen you smile. I've known you for ten years. I don't think I've ever seen a smile on your face."
"I want to ask you about survivors," Collins said.
"You know why you're not smiling? Because you know you're not telling the truth. You're a very dishonest organization and they should be ashamed of you," the president said.

One nugget confirming Trump’s relationship:
Paraphrasing Epstein: “I’ve known lots of disgusting people...Trump is the worst”
If you’re got hard evidence bring it or STFU. IMO
Once again, Trump is right.
If there were justice, Collins would be gone.
I am sure they have been “edited.”
I agree with the President. The Dems would much prefer we and everyone remains stuck in past events that do not really effect us right now. They don’t want you thinking about all the fraud cases in Minnesota, California, Georgia and elsewhere. They don’t want you thinking about all the killers and illegal gang members their judges put back on the streets.
“But I think it’s time now for the country to maybe get on to something else, like healthcare, or something the people care about.”
Like getting OUR tariff rebates, not just to your Soviet Military II. ✖️
I agree. It is a joke.

Foolish on his part. He’s making all and only about him.
Bottom line, this was a massive crooked Mossad and CIA operation. It was eyeballs deep in every aspect of our country and was IGNORED by all charged with protecting America. It was not just a sex scandal. It was influence peddling at an extreme level.
And he is covering up for it. He is being advised by fools. He is standing with his sponsors and with the filthy intel community and flipping the finger and insulting his base.
This won’t end well in November. If he was trying to look corrupt, he couldn’t do a better job.
Agree with our President. Let’s move on. Unfortunately, the media wants all the salacious details trying to find our President or any other high ranking Repub involvement.
Yeh, Trump is the worst because he caught Epstein coming on to underage girls at Maralago and Trump kicked him out.
That particular reporter is a sour pussed freak.
She deserves lashing every time.

Mr. Chiller-
Epstein was alive and full of leverage for three years of President Trumps first term.
Provide a reason that he didn’t use leverage against him at that time.
I think Trump wants to move on from Epstein and move on from Zelensky too.
Both are a waste of time.
And if Iran messes around, they’ll be done too.
It seems you and Epstein were/are angry Trump didn't take bait. You lose slick.
Don’t forget about the KGB.
“I think has a strategy of distancing himself from the “Epstein files” release because when the arrests come (and they are coming) and they start saying that Trump has weaponized the justice system he can point out that they wanted them released, not him.”
It’s more than a little obvious, but TDS means they will fall for the act anyway.
How is it that Brennan was not involved with Epstein?
This is all democrats have...aside from violence
