As nearly as I have been able to determine looking at a LOT of news sources over quite some time:
FACT:
--Trump and Epstein knew each other well enough to be on a first name basis. Trump and a LOT of other people and Epstein and a LOT of other people knew each other well enough to be on a first name basis.
--Trump and Epstein were never seen as close buddies or close social friends though they both did attend some of the the same A-list social occasions at times and were photographed together a very few times.
--Trump did speak very well of Epstein, as did MANY other people, before his less savory side started becoming apparent. New York Post said Trump booted Epstein from Mar-a-lago roughly in 2004. Epstein was first charged with a sex scandal in 2006. The story in New York Magazine in which Trump is quoted praising Epstein was published in 2002.
Epstein flight logs did show that Trump accepted transportation on Epstein's private jet a very few times and it was always to travel from Mar-a-lago to New Jersey or New York. Even the most rabid leftwing sources admit those flights were totally innocent. All occurred before 2004.
There is no indication that Trump had anything whatsoever to do with Jeffrey Epstein after 2004.
I'm guessing any 'expose' that comes out now will be pretty much exaggerated, manufactured, fabricated, misrepresented. But we'll see.
Okay in typical fashion Trump's own inability to not express what he is feeling and thinking doesn't appear to be useful in any way. But we'll see.
