For a decade-and-a-half, Donald Trump was a chum of Jeffrey Epstein, but in 2003 — before the financier was convicted of soliciting underage sex in 2006 — Trump cut him off after Epstein pressured one of Trump’s staff for sex, sources say.
The facts, rehashed by a new Wall Street Journal story, come at a time that the U.S. Justice Department is releasing thousands of pages of files of its investigations into Epstein’s sex island and the elites who flew there frequently. Trump is mentioned and picture much in the files, but nothing has implicated him yet of wrong-doing.
An 18-year-old beautician employed at Trump’s Florida club Mar-a-Lago visited Epstein’s nearby mansion and reported to her managers that he had pressured her for sex, the sources said. The incident was not reported to Palm Beach Police.
Two years later, local cops investigated Epstein after the family of a 14-year-old girl said she had been molested at his mansion in 2005. The billionaire was arrested in 2006 after multiple underage girls said they were hired by Epstein for sex.
In 2008, he pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution and soliciting prostitution from a minor and served 13 months in jail. He was arrested a second time in 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges, but died in his jail cell while awaiting trial. His death was ruled a suicide.
Leftist politicians have tried to mire Trump with the Epstein affair because of his previous associations. It is disconcerting that the files being released have sections blacked out.
When White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles was quoted in Vanity Fair saying that former President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were “young, single playboys together,” it seemed like a preemptive damage control since files are still to be released.
The Wall Street Journal story re-researched the story of Trump’s association with Epstein and dug up a new “bombshell” revelation: his then-wife Marla Maples warned people that Epstein was creepy and Trump, apparently, didn’t heed her warnings.
