Donald Trump dismissed a request for comment with a straightforward six-word statement after newly uncovered photos and video footage were made public, revealing more information about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
Trump claimed during his most recent presidential campaign that he would have “no problem” releasing documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender.
The president’s promise was partially fulfilled in February 2025 when Attorney General Pamela Bondi released the so-called “first phase” of declassified Epstein files; however, by July, Trump’s Department of Justice (DOJ) declared that it had found “no basis” to release more files.\In its announcement earlier this month, the DOJ also claimed to have found “no incriminating” client list.
Some members of the public speculated that Trump was “hiding” information about Epstein because of the decision to not release additional files. The president only fueled the flames when he was asked by one reporter, “Are people still talking about this guy? This jerk? That is not believable.
Trump tried to stifle the conversation with the embattled financier again after being questioned about pictures taken in 1993, but he has since declared his intention to make the grand jury files involving Epstein public.
Epstein’s attendance at Trump’s second wedding, his 1993 union with Marla Maples, is verified by the media for the first time by CNN’s KFile.
Video appears to show Trump and Epstein chatting and laughing together at a 1999 Victoria’s Secret fashion event in New York.
Dafydd Jones, the photographer from Trump’s 1993 wedding, told CNN that he “must have recognized” Epstein at Trump’s wedding after meeting the financial advisor when he photographed him and Trump at the Harley Davidson Cafe in New York in October 1993.
In a recent interview, he stated, “I wish I had taken more of him with Trump.” “I stood with the media and took pictures of Trump because I was assigned to cover his wedding. The negatives were lost, so the picture you have is from the contact sheet.
Trump responded with six words, “You’ve got to be kidding me,” when asked about the wedding photos and accused CNN of spreading “fake news.”
“These are nothing more than out-of-context frame grabs of harmless videos and pictures of widely attended events to disgustingly infer something nefarious,” said White House Communications Director Steven Cheung in a slightly longer statement.
In actuality, he was expelled from his club by the President for being a jerk. This is merely an extension of the false information that the liberal media and Democrats have been fabricating.
Trump and Epstein have been together since the 1980s and are known to have attended many of the same social events. In the middle of the 2000s, the couple reportedly fell out over a high-profile Palm Beach real estate deal.
