Donald Trump got a whole lot busier amid his ongoing campaign for the upcoming presidential elections after he was named in the infamous Jeffrey Epstein documents. The MAGA member has strongly denied ties connecting him to the deceased pedophile.
Although he did admit to using the jet, he strongly shut down any other allegations against him. Trump, being an emanated businessman, had a diverse network of people, including Epstein. The two were known to be good friends and were often spotted at social soirees. However, Epstein found himself forbidden from setting foot on Mar-a-Lago after Trump took notice of this alleged incident.
Epstein’s arrest in 2019 caused a horrific aftermath, with multitudes of victims coming forward to testify against him. Those victims primarily included several underage women who were sexually abused by the pedophile. A 2020 article by The U.S. Sun noted a rumor surrounding Epstein’s attempt to allegedly take a 15-year-old girl from Trump’s controversial Mar-a-Lago home.
As mentioned, Trump and Epstein were thought to be rather close with each other in the past before his arrest. Popular author Bradley Edwards provided more insight on the matter concerning Trump in the book “Relentless Pursuit: My Fight for the Victims of Jeffrey Epstein.”

While Edwards emphasized the profound gravity of the ordeal concerning Epstein’s victims he also addressed the rumor. During his alleged conversation with the former President, he highlights Trump’s “meaningful” response.
The GOP front-runner first clarified his ties with Epstein and “explained that he was a business acquaintance of Mr. Epstein’s from many years earlier.” The author continued to note that even though Trump and the disgraced pedophile were spotted exchanging pleasantries during numerous social events, they weren’t “as close” to each other as the media had made it seem.”
Edwards also recounted Trump’s thoughts on Epstein’s quote in a 2002 profile, in which the former called Epstein a “terrific guy.” Furthermore, Trump claimed Epstein preferred “beautiful women” who “are on the younger side.” This prompted Edwards to question Trump about the highly anticipated rumor. The whispers alleged Epstein’s attempt to take home a minor, the daughter of one of Trump’s family members.

While Trump didn’t directly mention who the woman was for security reasons, he did offer some insight. Edwards wrote, “He paused before saying that something along those lines happened, but he could not recall the exact details and instead referred me to his Mar-a-Lago manager, Bernd Lembcke.”
As per Edwards, the manager has refrained from commenting on the subject and offered no remark about the truth of the matter. Nonetheless, ever since then, Epstein and Trump weren’t spotted together as often as they used to. It eventually led to him banning the late pedophile from entering his home.
