Jeffrey Epstein believed he could make a deal to dodge sex trafficking charges by giving up dirt on Trump or Clinton after his 2019 arrest - and discussed ways to restore his image with Steve Bannon and Israeli PM Ehud Barak, book claims
2021-10-16
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Just because that vile man believed it, if he did, does not make it so. Assuming Mr. Wolff correctly transcribed what was or wasn’t said.
  • Too Famous: The Rich, the Powerful, the Wishful, the Damned, the Notorious, by Michael Wolff will lift the lid on billionaire Jeffrey Epstein's final months

  • The book, out October 19, claims Epstein thought there was 'a deal to be made' over his sex trafficking charges, including turning against Trump and Clinton

  • According to Wolff, who recounts his visits to Epstein's homes in NYC and Paris, the pedophile believed there were two scenarios behind his 2019 arrest

  • He thought though the Trump White House, through the DOJ, was trying to get Epstein 'to flip and reveal the sex secrets of Bill Clinton,' Wolff writes

  • The other scenario was that New York prosecutors, who were investigating Trump's business affairs, ordered his arrest to 'pressure him to flip on Trump'

  • Wolff recalls a visit to Epstein's NYC home in 2019 where he heard discussions with Steve Bannon and former Israeli PM Ehud Barak on how to restore his image

  • One suggestion was for Epstein to appear on 60 Minutes, CBS This Morning or to be interviewed by Rachel Maddow, but Bannon said it would be tough
