Comer exposed Melania Trump while shielding husband in Epstein scandal: expert

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer attempted to use Bill Clinton's statement to shield President Trump from congressional testimony. Comer told reporters that Clinton said Trump "has never said anything to me to make me think he was involved" with Epstein. However, Rep. Robert García disputed Comer's characterization of Clinton's remarks. MSNBC's Ali Vitali noted Comer was trying to preemptively counter Democratic arguments that Trump, mentioned hundreds of times in the Epstein files, should testify. Vitali highlighted a major flaw in the strategy: if the committee questions spouses without direct knowledge, like Hillary Clinton regarding Bill, it creates a double standard for refusing to question Melania Trump, who appears in Epstein files and corresponds with Ghislaine Maxwell. The approach exposes both Trump and Melania to accusations of partisan double standards.
