Trump previously refused to declassify the Epstein files. In interview with Lex Friedman now: “Trump seemed to justify the [Epstein] list of powerful men being kept secret all this time, adding that releasing the list “endangers certain people.””

**Submission statement:**
Something is going on with the Epstein files. On the Lex Friedman podcast Trump was asked several questions about these files and how they should be declassified. Trump was very hesitant and wouldn’t commit to any such declassification because, according to Trump, that could endanger certain powerful men.
In the same interview, Trump tried to defend his ally Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s ties with Epstein. RFK Jr. has admitted that he twice flew on Epstein’s plane (The so-called “Lolita Express”).
Trump also in the interview praised Epstein as “a good salesman”.
**The question is, what is Trump’s role in this situation? Who are these “powerful men” that Trump thinks would be “endangered” by releasing the Epstein files?**
