Trump: “Nobody, and I mean nobody. And I mean that, really I do. No one knows more about Jeff than I do. He and I go way back. Terrific guy, really. Tremendous. Huuuge guy, whatever that means. But I think you know, don’t you? Look, you have to have a real smart, you know what. But I get that. There’s not a lot of smart people running Jeffrey Epstein Island. But at least we have Jeff. He’s all about that. I’m all about that. Americans know everywhere what I want, what I’m all about. I was talking to Jeff’s property… uh, whatever her name is. I don’t know her name, I just grabbed her by the pussy and said, ‘Listen. Listen. You hear that? Exactly. That’s what I mean, that’s what the fake news won’t tell you.’ And she looks at me and says, ‘What?’. And I gotta tell you folks, for real. This is real. And this is what I’m all about. We have to vote the Dems out. Sleepy Joe. Bengazi. Something about Iran or whatever, I don’t really care. But the point is, I think I’ve made my point. And they said to me, something that always sticks in my heart, and I’ll the you the secret. We just have to vote Epstein out. Get the democrats out, and stand up for freedom and vote for Red this year in December. On December 4, make your thing count, you know what I mean? Sleepy Jeff Biden doesn’t know that, does he? It’s sad, really. And I mean that. Just terrible. Sad day in America to be an Epstein, but a great one. Tremendous, even.”
Did a women (minor at the time) directly implicate Trump in rape on Epstein’s island? I’m forgetting which rape accusations were for Trump; there are so many.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The documents name about 170 people who have come up in a legal battle between Virginia Giuffre, one of his accusers, and Ghislaine Maxwell, his former girlfriend who in 2021 was convicted of trafficking girls to him for sex.
“This individual did not raise any objection to unsealing, and thus did not meet his or her burden of identifying interests that outweigh the presumption of access with specificity,” Preska wrote of Doe 36.
Two of the unsealed documents the judge said named Doe 174 are from a deposition of Johanna Sjoberg, who has accused Epstein of rape and Prince Andrew of groping her (the British royal has denied the claims).
“Mr. Epstein’s name has been widely linked in the press with prominent individuals such as Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew,” his attorneys wrote in a motion arguing that he should not be forced to testify in front of a jury, later adding: “His personal appearance at the trial of this case would predictably be the focus of massive media attention, of both the mainstream and gutter variety.”
One unsealed document from a lawyer representing Dershowitz seeks to discredit one of his accusers, Sarah Ransome, by saying she has made unproven claims about possessing video footage of powerful people having sex with girls in Epstein’s homes.
In her book “Silenced No More: Surviving My Journey to Hell and Back,” she said she told the false story as a sort of insurance policy, though she maintained that “Jeffrey kept a trove of surveillance on every person who had ever visited his properties.”

we already knew it, now it is just confirmed.

His base won’t care, but we should. Ever conversation about that shit stain should include “oh you mean that guy that flew to Epstein’s island a whole lot, and had his name obfuscated on flight logs to hide his identity because he knew what he was doing was illegal and wrong?”
I thought I recalled seeing this a while ago and indeed this post is 6 months old.
It’s nice when law enforcement works overtime to protect you just so you can turn around and cry law enforcement is rigged against you
Flight records made public on the trial showed Trump flew on Epstein’s plane with his son Eric.
Now there’s an ick factor.
Nobody ought to be surprised. Trump was publicly good friends with Epstein.
“I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump booms from a speakerphone. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”
How the fuck do you hear a man say that and sincerely think “He had no idea Epstein was a pedo.”
You act like republicans think pedophelia is a sin
Again. EVERYTHING republicans accuse others of doing is projection. They lack any degree of empathy or shame so if there is something they do then Others are doing it but bad.
Out of context and from another speaker I would interpret that statement as “I’ve had longstanding connections with this guy. Watch out, he’s a perv but to a degree that’s publicly tolerable. Watch out, he’s got a thing for young girls. All of that has to be tolerated because he’s socially connected.”
Given the speaker, though that between the lines reading may be giving too much credit.
Your hypothetical interpretation is as generous as you can reasonably be. Some people manage to sincerely believe “He had no idea” and it’s ridiculous.
Willful ignorance.
Looking forward to what his excuse will be this time.
“Barely knew him. He tried to talk to me, everyone tries to talk to me. I’m very popular at the parties, very famous. Maybe I met him, I meet a lot of people. A lot of people stay at my hotels and I talk with them, because they are the best hotels.”
Painfully believable.
Something something liberal agenda something something deep state…
Nah, this is Trump, not Fox News talking heads.
Trump will ramble about sharks or something else completely unrelated.
