Trump on Jeffrey Epstein’s jailed companion Ghislaine Maxwell: ‘I wish her well’
WASHINGTON — Speaking from the White House briefing room, President Trump weighed in on the arrest of British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, saying, “I just wish her well.”
The question came during a briefing and press conference called to discuss the administration’s coronavirus response, at which Trump, who had been downplaying the seriousness of the pandemic, acknowledged that the situation would probably get worse, but nevertheless predicted that the virus ultimately “will disappear.”
Epstein’s death was ruled a suicide, but it has since been the subject of intense speculation driven by his powerful connections, including the many high-profile names in his infamous “black book.” One of the most famous men in Epstein’s circle was Trump himself. The pair socialized regularly for years before having a falling-out in the early 2000s. Trump and his wife, Melania, were photographed with Epstein and Maxwell on numerous occasions.
At the White House briefing, Trump was specifically asked about two men whose names have been linked to Epstein — former President Bill Clinton and Britain’s Prince Andrew.
