The Democrats’ Latest Trump-Epstein 'Bombshell' Actually Vindicates Trump
Matt Margolis
Democrats are scrambling to change the subject after caving on the government shutdown, and their latest stunt is hilariously transparent. On Wednesday, House Oversight Committee Democrats released emails from Jeffrey Epstein's estate that they claimed raised "serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein's horrific crimes." The problem? The emails prove nothing of the sort.
ABC News even
admitted "The full context of these email exchanges is not clear from the portions released by the committee Democrats." That's putting it mildly.
The supposed bombshell consists of three exchanges from 2011, 2015, and 2019. In a 2011 email between Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein referred to Trump as "the dog that hasn't barked," noting that an alleged victim had spent hours at Trump's house but Trump's name had "never once been mentioned." Maxwell responded, "I have been thinking about that."
That's it. No accusation. No evidence. No incriminating information whatsoever.
The victim referenced in those emails is Virginia Giuffre, whose name was redacted in the Democrat release. And there is probably a good reason they did. Giuffre, who previously worked at Mar-a-Lago, has consistently stated under oath that she never witnessed Trump engage in any wrongdoing. She testified that Trump never acted inappropriately with her, that she never saw Trump and Epstein together, and that she never saw Trump at any of Epstein's homes. Her memoir makes abundantly clear that Trump had zero involvement in Epstein's illegal activities.
The 2015 emails show Epstein corresponding with anti-Trump author Michael Wolff, who was fishing for gossip during Trump's first presidential campaign back in 2016. Wolff, not Epstein, suggested ways to "hang" Trump politically depending on how he answered media questions about Epstein. Wolff is literally trying to urge Epstein to blackmail Trump in the email over the issue of whether Trump flew on Epstein's plane or had been to his home. "If he says he hasn't been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency," Wolff wrote. "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."
Then there's a January 2019 email between the two in which they discussed whether Trump had banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago years earlier. Epstein wrote, "Trump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever. Of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop."
This, many on the left claim, is the smoking gun that Trump knew about Epstein’s sex trafficking. "Jeffrey Epstein wrote Trump 'knew about the girls', referencing Mar-a-Lago, in newly released emails,” NBC News
said in their headline. The only problem is that they are deliberately misinterpreting what that email was actually about, and NBC News even acknowledge within the article that the email was "apparently referencing Trump and Epstein's soured relationship" and how Trump banned Epstein from his club for being a creep who poached employees from him.
"These emails prove absolutely nothing other than the fact that President Trump did nothing wrong. And what President Trump has always said is that he was from Palm Beach and so was Jeffrey Epstein,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Wednesday. “Jeffrey Epstein was a member at Mar-a-Lago until President Trump kicked him out because Jeffrey Epstein was a pedophile and he was a creep."
The funny thing is that Democrats released more emails on Wednesday, including one that undermines the narrative they’re trying to push. The email from Wolff to Epstein shows Wolff attempting to extract damaging information about Trump before the 2016 election. "There's an opportunity to come forward this week and talk about Trump in such a way that could garner you great sympathy and help finish him," Wolff wrote days before the 2016 election. "Interested?" he asked. No replies to Wolff's solicitation were released by the Democrats. The problem was that Epstein had no dirt on Trump, hence the reason we don’t have any replies in that email exchange. Here's the real question: If Wolff's emails were so damaging, why didn't he release them sooner? He clearly wanted to get Trump but obviously didn't think they were damaging enough to release earlier.
