Danielle Bensky, who was abused by Jeffrey Epstein, says president was ‘incredibly disrespectful’ in recent comments

A survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse has condemned Donald Trump for dismissing the victims’ fight for transparency as a “hoax”.

Shortly after signing a bill to release the Epstein files, the US president posted a lengthy social media rant accusing Democrats of weaponising the scandal against him.

Danielle Bensky, 39, who was abused by Epstein as a teenager, said: “[Trump] made something very political out of something that could have been really a beautiful moment for our history and for women and for survivors everywhere.

    Only the dumbest of the dumb are going to believe the guy who has been blocking their release for months actually has wanted them released all along.

    These files were releasable by the president, but he refused… The thing he signed is a bill forcing him to release them within 30 days.

    The fact that he’s still breathing is incredibly disrespectful to me, the planet, and to every person that ever lived for the last 30000 years.

    This could be one of the rare occasions when Trump isn’t lying. There will be endless fuckery about release of those files. They’ll be redacted, doctored, lost, classified, “relevant to ongoing investigations,” “can’t get them because there’s a spider in the corner of the storeroom,” and worse.
