US: Epstein Case Unlikely To Signficantly Damage Trump Approval

Jul-30 17:27

Nate Silver at Silver Bulletin writes that despite the high volume of news reports about President Donald Trump's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, it may not resonate broadly enough with the electorate to impact Trump’s approval. 

  • Silver notes: “Google search traffic in the United States reveals that the peak of interest in the Epstein case a couple of weeks ago was only about one-third as high as the one surrounding tariffs in April. I know that might seem like an apples-to-oranges comparison, but tariffs are an interesting benchmark precisely because they’re one of the few things that did produce notable political fallout for Trump.”
  • Silver adds: “There remains a strong case that voters are concerned about the economy and the cost of living, but that everything else is priced in.”
