What caused the Trump-Epstein falling out 10-15 years ago?

Last edited Thu Jul 11, 2019, 10:53 AM - Edit history (1)


Trump now says of Epstein "I'm no fan," just as he said about McCain. So was it that explosive/negative?

Did Jeffrey make a move on Ivanka? Was it a business slight? Did he blackmail Trump successfully?

Does anyone know?

A friend or business partner of Тяцмр’s. But there’s no evidence to back it up anywhere. In short, no one knows.

Mar a lago because he was moving on the daughter of a member, and that member complained to trump. IIRC, that is what Julie Brown, the Miami Herald reporter, told Rachel was the rumored reason, but she couldn't confirm it.

The house that Trump sold to a Russianoligarch for 2x and suspected of a money laundering deal. A deal that Epstein thought he should have gotten.

My thoughts too on what it was....

But that it is for reasons all associated with money laundering, the Russians and much more....

I do wonder what Epstein has really been doing to earn his money all these decades and also his associations internationally. I wonder if Trump and Epstein were competing for the same things....

As if it resolves Trump and others of responsibility. They are distancing themselves by saying things like "I haven't spoken to the guy in over a decade" etc.

Bear in mind the infamous plea deal was in 2006. He was a known and admitted sex offender 13 years ago. I find it a pretty low bar to say you haven't spoken to him since he became radioactive.
