Actor Alan Ritchson, known for Amazon Prime’s “Reacher,” criticizes President Donald Trump in comments about the alleged Epstein files. In multiple outlets’ accounts of his remarks, Ritchson says Trump has concealed the files and argues that they should be released. He depicts the documents as a “manila envelope” and says he would obtain them “in two seconds,” expressing frustration that people he characterizes as abusers would not be held accountable.
Ritchson’s comments also include strong language describing the individuals involved and condemning sexual abuse. Several reports state that he refers to the alleged abuse of minors and says the president is “cool with it,” while urging that those responsible should face jail time. One outlet characterizes his language as implying Trump should “go to jail,” while others report he calls Trump a “rapist” and uses additional profanity.
The excerpts describe a public interview or podcast appearance in which Ritchson calls for accountability tied to the Epstein files, but they do not provide independent verification of specific claims within the reports.
