Overview

  • CNN data shows Google searches for "Epstein" have plunged by 89 percent over the past three weeks, indicating waning public interest.
  • Trump’s overall approval rating stands at about 44 percent, remaining within the margin of error of his July figure and above comparable points in his first term.
  • Republican backing for Trump has climbed to near 90 percent, suggesting he has maintained firm support despite media scrutiny of the Epstein materials.
  • Recent polling finds only one percent of GOP voters and virtually no Democrats or independents name the Epstein issue as a top concern.
  • Legal filings and congressional efforts to unseal Epstein-related records, including debates over a purported “client list,” continue largely out of public view.
