Trump says he doesn't understand why his supporters are interested in 'boring' Epstein case – video

Donald Trump told reporters he doesn't understand why his supporters are so interested in the 'sordid, but boring' crimes of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. 'He's dead for a long time,' the president said. 'I think, really, only pretty bad people, including fake news, want to keep something like that going,' he said. Trump's comments came after the justice department announced Epstein's death was a suicide and that, despite conspiracy theories to the contrary, there was no list of his clients to be made public
