For a few weeks now, Democrats have been obsessing on the Epstein story, a topic that they had no interest in until the moment they thought it could be used as a political weapon against Trump.
The air is already leaking out of the issue, however.
CNN data analyst Harry Enten noted today that interest in the issue is way down. He even called it a political nothingburger.
From the Independent, via Yahoo News:
Epstein story has become a ‘nothingburger,’ data expert says
Weeks after being flabbergasted over the amount of interest the American public was showing in Jeffrey Epstein and the Trump administration’s botched handling of the investigation into the deceased sex offender, CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten now claims the issue is “quickly becoming something of a nothingburger.”
Vice President JD Vance unwittingly sparked a new wave of calls to release the so-called “Epstein Files” when he attempted to mock Democrats “who are now all of a sudden so interested” in the case during a Sunday interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo…
“I would say that this is, from at least a political point of view, quickly turning into a dud of a story,” Enten said on CNN News Central, causing anchor Kate Bolduan to remark how “wild” it was that interest had fallen off.
“Take a look here. Google searches for Epstein down 89 percent versus just three weeks ago. Falling through the floor,” an animated Ented exclaimed. “It is no longer the top term searched alongside Donald Trump‘s name – that‘s been trading off between tariffs and Vladimir Putin, with obviously the meeting coming up later this week.”
He added: “But at this particular point, the American people‘s interest in this story – it‘s quickly becoming something of a nothingburger!”

Democrats just keep going from thing to thing, hoping they can use it to damage Trump and they keep failing. They’ve got nothing and they know it.
