Why Trump Is Panicking Over the Epstein Files

What happens when leaked Epstein emails expose desperate calls from a president scrambling to hold his party together? On this breaking episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, Tara Palmeri joins MSNBC's Katy Tur to dissect the White House crisis over newly leaked Epstein emails, as Republican defections grow and Trump personally lobbies lawmakers like Lauren Boebert and Nancy Mace to kill a discharge petition. The segment exposes a frantic administration flooding the zone with distractions while the president's base demands full file releases despite claims of a hoax, highlighting bipartisan calls for justice in a scandal tied to elite networks, unredacted depositions, and fallout that stripped Prince Andrew of titles. With political damage mounting ahead of midterms, the discussion reveals why these revelations represent existential kryptonite for any leader linked to Epstein's web. How far will Trump's inner circle go to bury the Epstein truth before it buries them?
