You can’t keep President Trump down – he just keeps winning!
Opinion-editorial by Summer Lane | July 18, 2025
President Donald Trump has proven time and time again that he knows how to roll with the punches better than anyone – and that has proven especially true this week, even amid MAGA influencer defection and social media rage bait campaigns.
Late Thursday night, President Trump announced that he was ordering Attorney General Pam Bondi to unseal the grand jury testimony from Jeffrey Epstein’s indictment in New York, proving that not only does Trump care about what his supporters want, but that he’s ready for Americans to focus on winning instead of fixating on the rearview mirror.
“If there was a ‘smoking gun’ on Epstein, why didn’t the Dems, who controlled the ‘files’ for four years, and had Garland and Comey in charge, use it? BECAUSE THEY HAD NOTHING!!!” he wrote Friday morning on Truth Social.
The so-called Epstein files have provided plenty of talking points for influencers across the board, from left-wing outlets to right-wing talking heads. It has proven to be a point of fixation, and while justice for the alleged victims of Epstein is certainly a good and just cause, it seems silly that a criminal case of this nature has managed to eclipse the good news happening every day in the White House.
Indeed, the DOJ concluded recently that Epstein’s rumored “client list” of potentially blackmailed customers did not exist. That’s not to say that Epstein was not an intelligence asset – he certainly could have been. But the “smoking gun,” as Trump puts it, that MAGA influencers seem to be after, is nowhere to be found.
Nevertheless, Trump is still ordering the AG to unseal the grand jury testimony from the Epstein case, pending court approval. Does anyone think Trump has something to hide? Such an accusation is absurd, and many supposed conservative voices who have gone overboard in their criticism of President Trump likely feel a little silly at the moment for their tirades.
The constant flip-flopping from influencers who purport to trust President Trump, and then fly off the handle when they don’t get exactly what they want when they want it, is enough to cause a headache.
President Trump is the leader the nation elected him to be. He has proven his trustworthiness through years of leadership, political and legal persecution, media smear campaigns, and raging criticisms from both the right and the left.
It’s time to give President Trump the benefit of the doubt and give him credit where credit is due: The U.S. border is sealed. The illegal immigration invasion has halted. Deportation is underway. The “One Big Beautiful Bill” has been signed into law. Record-breaking tariff revenue is pouring into the U.S. Billions of dollars of investments are being made in America. Inflation is easing. Trump’s team is working to broker peace deals worldwide.
Despite the white noise of the media, it’s impossible to keep Trump down. He just keeps winning! And therein lies the success of everything he does. Amid the slog and swirl of media-propagated narratives, he just keeps doing what he does best: working hard and getting things done.
The Trump administration’s record speaks for itself. While many people may be fixated on the past, President Trump is focused on a future brimming with opportunity and expansion for the American people – a “Golden Age” of success and growth.
Nobody does it better than President Trump, and conservatives shouldn’t be so quick to make judgments about the man who took a bullet for his country in 2024. Accountability is all well and good, but disrespect and distrust are inappropriate.
President Trump is the leader this nation needs at this time in America’s storied history, and the people should continue to support and celebrate his agenda now more than ever.
