Trump Claims Epstein ‘Stole’ Virginia Giuffre from Mar-a-Lago Club
TL/DR –
President Donald Trump stated publicly that Jeffrey Epstein “stole” Virginia Giuffre from his Mar-a-Lago club, raising questions about his relationship with the late convicted sex offender. Trump alleges that Epstein took employees from his club, many of whom were young women working in the club’s spa, despite Trump’s warnings to Epstein. These admissions could further pressure Trump to release more files related to Epstein, despite his attempts to downplay the situation.
Trump’s Admission about Epstein’s Misconduct at Mar-a-Lago Raises Questions
President Donald Trump claimed that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein “stole” Virginia Giuffre from his Mar-a-Lago club. This surprising revelation could spotlight his ties to the deceased financier and divert attention from Epstein-related matters.
When asked about his fallout with Epstein over poaching his employees, Trump responded: “He took people that worked for me, and I told him not to do it again. He did it,” barring Epstein from his Florida estate.
“Stay the hell out of here,” Trump added. Regarding the “stolen” employees, he confirmed that many worked at the club’s spa.
“Yes, they were in the spa. We don’t want you taking our people,” Trump said, indicating Epstein repeated the action.
On being questioned whether Epstein “stole” Giuffre, one of Epstein’s notable abuse survivors who died by suicide in April, Trump stated: “I think she worked at the spa. He stole her, and by the way, she had no complaints about us.”
Last week, White House communications director Steven Cheung said Epstein was ousted from Mar-a-Lago for “being a creep.” Epstein committed suicide in a New York jail in 2019 while awaiting federal sex trafficking charges.
Amid growing pressure to reveal more about Epstein, including from his MAGA base, Trump tried to deflect scrutiny by dismissing the story as “boring” and rebuking supporters focused on the Epstein issue.
