“He was a good salesman; he was, you know, a hailing, hearty type of guy,” Trump said when asked why he believes so many powerful people were close to Epstein. “He had some nice assets that he’d throw around, like islands.”
When asked about his “hesitation” on releasing documents related to Epstein, including a his client list, the former president refused to commit but said he’d “take a look at it.”
NEW - Donald Trump tells Lex Fridman he was not involved with Jeffrey Epstein and never went to his island. Trump says he would be inclined to release the Epstein files.

Trump then immediately began trying to excuse Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for his relationship with Epstein.

The only time I ever see Trump get nervous is when he's answering questions about Epstein. Weird.

It is hilarious seeing conservatives in a frenzy again on Twitter with Trump doing another interview where he says, "Yeah, I'll release the Epstein client list." Gee, why didn't he do that when Epstein died under his watch while he was POTUS? Hilarious they keep falling for it.

I don't think he's really aware of the words coming out of his mouth at this point.
