Probably has to do with the notion of Trump being "anti-establishment" and Epstein being considered part of that "establishment". The idea in certain sphere has long been that there was a conspiracy of evil pedophiles running the deep state and that Trump was their adversary (see Pizzagate).

Some of his closest allies were pretty vocal on the Epstein case before the 2024 election, being convinced the likes of Bill Clinton would be compromised (which he was), but apparently believing Trump was innocent (which, obviously, he wasn't). Trump opposing the release of the file was something many in his camp appeared surprised and disappointed by, as his appearance in them ; tho of course those closest to him will say that was another conspiracy.

As a French guy who's spent a year in the US in my childhood, I can actually compare! That being said, I've also been in several schools in France and I can't say the food has been uniformly good, there's a lot of variation within schools of a same country (and that's only public schools, I haven't tried private ones). But while I can't say that french school foods all tasted good (there were some I hated and some I loved), I can at least say they all looked like food and tried to be healthy and varied from one day to the next. It's usually a small salad, a warm main dish that will usually have a meat, fish or omelette, some starch and some veggies, a dairy (cheese or yoghurt), a piece of bread, and a desert which is often a fruit. The actual taste changes a lot. Schools actually have a chef, but that doesn't mean they cook everything from scratch, a lot of it can be unfrozen stuff delivered from various companies.
