It’s time to breathe a huge sigh of relief. For months, it had seemed that Donald Trump was far more involved with Jeffrey Epstein than he had let on. Witnesses discussed photos of Trump with young girls and stains on his pants, we heard about a lewd birthday message from Trump to Epstein, and the president himself suddenly and suspiciously did a U-Turn on releasing the Epstein files.
But, thankfully for the dignity of the nation, Ghislaine Maxwell has flown in to save his bacon. On 24 and 25 July, Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general (also essentially Trump’s own personal lawyer) visited Maxwell in prison to interview her. Now the transcripts are out and, wouldn’t you know it, Trump is squeaky-clean!
