Epstein email says Trump ‘knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop’
Jeffrey Epstein wrote of Trump in one email: “Of course he knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop.”
The message was written in 2019 to journalist Michael Wolff, who has written extensively about Trump, referring to Ghislaine Maxwell, a former Epstein girlfriend now imprisoned for conspiring to engage in sex trafficking. But what he knew and if it was anything related to sex crimes is not clear.
While in an April 2, 2011, email to Maxwell, Epstein wrote, “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump. (Redacted name) spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned. police chief. etc. im 75 % there.”
Maxwell replied the same day: “I have been thinking about that.”
The name of the person said to have spent time with Trump was blacked out of the email, but House Democrats identified the person as a “victim.”
And Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary said that the unnamed person referenced in the emails is Giuffre. She said in a statement that Giuffre had “repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and “couldn’t have been friendlier’ to her in their limited interactions.”
