Donald Trump is in Epstein files but not doing anything awful, says White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles | World News

According to Trump’s Chief of Staff, the US President “was on Epstein’s plane…he’s on the manifest.

Susie Wiles, the White House Chief of Staff, has claimed that she has read the ‘Epstein files’. In an interview with Vanity Fair, Wiles also said that Trump’s name did appear in the ‘Epstein files’.

“[Trump] is in the file. And we know he’s in the file. And he’s not in the file doing anything awful,” she said, according to Vanity Fair.

‘Young, single playboys’

According to Trump’s Chief of Staff, the US President “was on [Epstein’s] plane…he’s on the manifest. They were, you know, sort of young, single, whatever—I know it’s a passé word but sort of young, single playboys together.”

Trump wrong about Bill Clinton

Trump has long tried to deflect attention from his relationship with Epstein pointing fingers at Democratic Party leaders who were also once close to the convicted sex offender.

The most high-profile among these has been former president Bill Clinton, who, according to Trump, has visited Epstein’s private island “supposedly 28 times.”Story continues below this ad

However, according to Wiles, “There is no evidence” those visits happened.” When asked if there was anything incriminating about Clinton in the files, she said, “The president was wrong about that.”

Trump unaware of Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer

Wiles also claimed that Trump was not aware of Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer to a minimum-security prison earlier this year after a meeting with Department of Justice officials.

Maxwell, who is convicted of child sex trafficking, is serving a 20-year prison sentence. She is currently incarcerated at the Federal Prison Camp Bryan, a minimum-security women’s prison in Bryan, Texas.

According to Wiles, Trump was not aware of the transfer before it was announced, and it made him upset.Story continues below this ad

“The president was ticked,” she said. “The president was mighty unhappy. I don’t know why they moved her. Neither does the president.”

‘Not Trump’s greeting card on Epstein’s birthday book’

She also insed that the infamous sketch allegedly signed Trump on Epstein for his 50th birthday book was not his.

“That letter is not his,” Wiles said. “And nothing about it rings true to me, nor does it to people that have known the president a lot longer than I have. I can’t explain The Wall Street Journal, but we’re going to get some discovery because we sued them. So we’re going to find out.”
