'He's Supposed To Protect Us': Epstein Survivor Who Voted For Trump Feels Betrayed
Jena-Lisa Jones, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse who was introduced to Epstein when she was just 14 years old, spoke with MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell on Wednesday night to discuss her decision to join other Epstein survivors on Capitol Hill, where, as it turns out, a military flyover of F-35 fighter jets interrupted the press conference. Still, we're sure that's just a coincidence, just as we're sure it's merely a coincidence that Trump unleashed the military on cities that didn't vote for him.
Trump, of course, weighed in after the survivors spoke of the abuse, calling it a "Democrat hoax that never ends." As it happens, Jones voted for Trump in 2024, so she's not a Democrat, and it's not a hoax.
"I voted for him," Jones said. "I voted for Trump. And for him to say what he’s saying is beyond me, because I put my hope in him and he’s supposed to protect us."
“For him to say that this is a joke and that it’s sides, this is not sides," she continued. "We will say it time and time again, none of us are up there accusing him of anything. There is no one that is accusing him of any wrongdoing, so the fact that he’s saying it’s a hoax, who are you hiding for then? Because if it’s not you, then who is it? And that scares me, who is it.”
O'Donnell asked what she would say to Trump, who has two daughters.
