Even Epstein thought Trump was a "horrible human being"

    Trump and Epstein were close friends for well over a decade and so Epstein knew Trump well.



    Epstein: "His reading comprehension is overly complicated"....

    So that makes a lot of sense.

    Perhaps Donald had Billy Bush's wife listening on their Access Hollywood conversation.

    Interviews
    Michael Wolff
    The journalist on Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein, and his decision to release details about their friendship

    Very detailed interview here:
    https://yalereview.org/article/michael-wolff-donald-trump-jeffrey-epstein-interview

    AI generated summary of why Wolff sat on the recordings for years.

    "Journalist Michael Wolff conducted extensive interviews with Jeffrey Epstein in 2017, during the research for his book "Fire and Fury," which delved into Donald Trump's presidency. Epstein, who had been a close associate of Trump during the late 1980s and 1990s, provided Wolff with insights into their relationship and Trump's character. Despite the potential significance of these revelations, Wolff chose not to release the recordings immediately.

    Reasons for Withholding the Recordings:

    1. Contextual Relevance: At the time of the interviews, Wolff was focused on documenting the internal dynamics of the Trump White House. Epstein's perspectives, while intriguing, may not have aligned directly with the book's primary narrative.


    2. Epstein's Notoriety: Epstein's criminal activities and subsequent arrest in 2019 heightened public interest in his associations. Releasing the tapes earlier might have been seen as exploiting a sensitive and evolving legal situation.


    3. Editorial Discretion: Journalists often withhold certain information until they deem it contextually appropriate or newsworthy. Wolff may have waited for a moment when the content of the recordings would have the most impact or relevance.



    Wolff eventually released portions of these recordings in late 2024, just days before the presidential election, through his "Fire and Fury" podcast series. The timing suggests he believed the information was pertinent to the public discourse surrounding Trump's re-election campaign. In these tapes, Epstein characterized Trump as a "brilliant" real estate salesman but criticized his lack of knowledge in history and strategy, describing him as both "charming" and "a horrible human being."

    It's also noteworthy that despite the potentially explosive nature of these recordings, their release received limited media attention. This could be attributed to various factors, including media fatigue with Trump-related controversies or skepticism about Epstein's credibility as a source.

    In summary, Wolff's decision to withhold the Epstein recordings for years appears to have been influenced by considerations of relevance, timing, and the evolving public and media landscape.

    Hey Dems what's your plan to restore the middle class and how you would use AI to reduce the cost of living.
    AOC is pretending populism, so tell her to lower credit card interest rates.

    Well yes, Epstein did know him a long time so TDS is inevitable.

    Why was the dead pedophile a close friend, a real personal friend as far as Trump can have, for a very long time?

    His description of Trump and reading/knowledge outside his narrow interests, there is dead on. The neatest and most accurate assessment I have ever read.

    These recordings were only released a week before the last election and got lost in the noise, so I am reminding of them.

    These are the real Epstein files.

  9. When Epstein says that Trump is a horrible human being, that's gotta leave you with a sense of context.

    The sexual assault where Trump started groping Epstein's girlfriend while standing with and talking to Epstein, both Trump and Epstein smiling, this when she was visiting Trump's apartment with Epstein comes to mind again.

    She said afterwards that Epstein was screaming why did you let him do that? Which totally blew her mind. Perhaps Epstein was not as on-board as he seemed.
