One of the biggest questions looming over President Donald Trump’s second term right now is how much his supporters truly care about the Jeffrey Epstein files.

The distinction between caring a lot vs. a little is critical. The former could mean a sustained problem for the president that bleeds into the midterm elections and affects turnout among his typically loyal base. The latter would mean this is likely nothing more than an ugly episode that ultimately fades away.

So, now that we’ve had a chunk of time since the Justice Department released their controversial Epstein memo, how much do Republicans care about all this?

A bevy of new polls show they’re unhappy with how the Trump administration has handled this scandal and suggest it could be a persistent problem for the GOP.

The base is about evenly split on the administration’s actions, meaning there’s a higher degree of skepticism than we almost ever see with Trump. And that might actually undersell the level of lingering GOP concern.
