Why did Donald Trump reverse his position on Epstein files? | BBC News


Listen Later

US President Donald Trump has urged lawmakers in his own party to vote to release files relating to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Trump wrote on Sunday that Republicans in the House of Representatives should vote in favour of a bill that would compel the US government to publish all the documents on Epstein "because we have nothing to hide".
The reversal of his recent position follows a slow drip feed of documents concerning the disgraced financier by House Democrats, some of which reference Trump, who has always denied any link to Epstein's sex abuse and trafficking.
