In reply to the discussion: Epstein files contain explicit but unsubstantiated claim that Trump abused minor [View all]SunSeeker
(58,117 posts)I mean, why is it so unbelievable? This is exactly the sort of behavior for which Epstein and Maxwell were convicted. What the woman describes seems pretty believable to me:
The woman who directly named Trump in her abuse allegation claimed that around 1983, when she was around 13 years old, Epstein introduced her to Trump, who subsequently forced her head down to his exposed penis which she subsequently bit. In response, Trump punched her in the head and kicked her out.https://martinplaut.com/2026/02/25/the-trump-files-withheld-by-the-us-justice-department-showing-abuse-of-minors/#:~:text=United%20States-,The%20Epstein%20files%20withheld%20by%20the%20US%20Justice%20Department%20showing,head%20and%20kicked%20her%20out.%E2%80%9D
Is it "unbelievable " because the alleged perp happens to be Donald Trump?
The only things the Guardian offers as contradictory facts aren't contradictory at all:
Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epsteins brother, told the Guardian he had no knowledge of his brother spending summers on Hilton Head in the early 1980s. I would have known, he said in a phone call. There is no evidence Trump and Epstein knew each other in 1983. (Trump told New York magazine in 2002 that he had met Epstein 15 years earlier.)
Epstein's brother's comment (that Epstein did not spend his summers in Hilton Head) does not disprove anything. The woman did not say Epstein spent his summers with her in Hilton Head, she said he took her to New York and New Jersey. That was his M.O. He always took the girls away to New York, or his ranch, or his island. And 1983-1985 IS "approximately" 15 years from 2002. Trump is not known to be particularly precise with numbers.
