Popular radio host Charlamagne tha God highlighted the obvious double standard on display in the way media outlets cover President Donald Trump compared to the way they cover almost anyone else — but especially Democrats — using the late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein as an example.

During his radio show “The Breakfast Club” on Tuesday, he pointed out the fact that former President Bill Clinton had been repeatedly linked to Epstein — but it was any connection to Trump, no matter how nebulous or even benign — that was poked, prodded, and explored ad nauseam by American media outlets.

“It’s just funny how the news works,” Charlamagne said, referencing a report — over which President Trump has filed a libel lawsuit — from The Wall Street Journal stating that Trump had written Epstein a letter that was included in a birthday book.

“Because Bill Clinton wrote a letter to Jeffrey Epstein as well for his birthday — but nobody’s talking about that,” Charlamagne added. “And Jeffrey Epstein had a picture of Bill Clinton in a dress, in high heels, you know, in his New York mansion, but nobody’s talking about that.”

“My thing is this,” he continued. “I don’t care who’s on the list, everybody gotta go. Burn it all down. Like — it’s just simple as that, mutually assured destruction, whoever’s on that list needs to go, nobody needs to be protecting pedophiles, I don’t care what party they are.”

Morgyn Wood, White House correspondent for the Black Information Network, weighed in then, arguing that Trump was only in the spotlight because he happened to be the sitting President of the United States. She failed to mention the fact that when former President Joe Biden was in office, legacy media outlets had showed an aggressive lack of curiosity in his obvious cognitive decline.

“No, period. And you know, to that point, though, you know Clinton is not the president right now,” Wood protested. “You know, if he was, you think that — anyways, yeah. I think he would still be under scrutiny if he was the president right now.”

“No, he wouldn’t — because liberal media wouldn’t push the issue,” Charlamagne shot back.
