Donald Trump has decried the bipartisan controversy over US Attorney General Pam Bondi's remarks that there was no evidence the late financier Jeffrey Epstein kept an incriminating list of his wealthy clients
He has called the issue a "witch hunt" and says the press and American citizens should instead look into unsubstantiated allegations of corruption he is levelling at the Democrats
Trump's appearance comes as the US Department of Justice has asked to meet Ghislaine Maxwell - she was found guilty in 2022 of helping Epstein sexually abuse young girls
The president has said that only "stupid" people are still concerned with the case - previously, Trump campaigned on releasing documents related to Epstein, including the so-called "client list"
