Epstein Emails Implicate Trump: ‘Spent Hours’ With Victim, White House Denies Claims
Jeffrey Epstein and author Michael Wolff were talking about coaching Donald Trump ahead of a 2015 CNN debate — and in newly released emails, it seems they were trying to craft a response that would not fully disclose the relationship between Epstein and Trump. The White House is pushing back, saying “These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments.”
According to a December 2015 email, Wolff said to Epstein, “I hear CNN planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you.”
Epstein wrote back, “If we were able to craft an answer for him, what do you think it should be?”
Wolff then responds, “I think you should let him hang himself. If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency.”
He goes on to say, “If it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt.”
The emails — first reported by CNN — were part of a 23,000-page dump released by Democrats in the House Oversight Committee. Although Trump is mentioned multiple times, he did not send or receive any of these emails.
In a January 2019 correspondence, Epstein addressed Trump’s claim Epstein was forced to resign his membership from Mar-a-Lago “for being a creep.”
Epstein wrote to Wolff, “trump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever. . of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop”.
Epstein also dropped Trump’s name in an April 2011 email — marked high importance — to Maxwell, stating “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is trump.. [VICTIM REDACTED] spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned. police chief. etc. im 75 % there.”
Ghislaine responded, “I have been thinking about that… ” That flies in the face of what she told Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, when she told him earlier this year … Trump never did anything concerning in her presence. Notably, after she made that statement, she was transferred to a minimum security prison camp.
The White House says the unnamed victim is the late Virginia Giuffre, adding “Virginia repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and ‘couldn’t have been friendlier’ to her in their limited interactions.”
The House of Representatives is set to reconvene today following two months out of session during the government shutdown, to vote for a Senate-passed budget. Speaker Mike Johnson will swear in recently elected Arizona Rep. Adelita Grijalva, who has announced she will add her signature to a petition — she’s the final one necessary — to demand the Dept. of Justice release the Epstein Files.
