Jeffrey Epstein is still haunting Donald Trump from beyond the grave as a raft of new emails allegedly show that the US President ‘spent hours’ at the billionaire’s mansion with a victim of sex trafficking.
In a statement, US House Democrats explained they are reviewing 23,000 documents released by Epstein’s estate as they posted several on X on Wednesday.
One email between Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein in 2011, alleges that Trump ‘spent hours at my house’ with an unnamed victim of sex trafficking, many of whom were later found to have been underage.
Epstein told Maxwell, who was later convicted on charges related to facilitating his crimes, ‘I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump.’
‘I have been thinking about that’, Maxwell, who is behind bars for facilitating Epstein’s crimes, wrote back.
Trump has always emphatically denied any involvement in or knowledge of Epstein’s sex-trafficking operation.
In another email between Epstein and writer Michael Wolff in 2019, Epstein claims that Trump ‘knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop.’
Other messages between Wolff and Epstein appear to discuss how Trump should answer questions about his friendship with Epstein in an upcoming CNN interview and if they can ‘craft an answer’ for him.
‘I think you should let him hang himself,’ Wolff writes. ‘If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency. You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you, or, if it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt.
In a statement, congressman Robert Garcia said: ‘The more Donald Trump tries to cover up the Epstein files, the more we uncover. These latest emails and correspondence raise glaring questions about what else the White House is hiding and the nature of the relationship between Epstein and the President.’
The three emails released are from Epstein’s 2008 plea deal after he was charged with soliciting prostitution before federal prosecutors dropped the case.
