Explosive new audio reveals that Donald Trump detailed how he really felt about his White House staff to Jeffrey Epstein, and Epstein touted old photos of Trump with half-naked women taken at the site of the pedophileās rampant sexual abuse of young girls.
On author Michael Wolffās Thursday episode of his podcast Fire and Fury, Wolff shared a recording of a conversation with Epstein from 2017, in which the convicted sex offender and alleged human trafficker recounted Trumpās true feelings about members of his administration, The Daily Beast reported.
āHis people fight each other and then have outsidersāhe sort of poisons the well outside,ā Epstein told Wolff. Epstein went on to paraphrase Trumpās candid statements about his former strategist Steve Bannon, former chief of staff Reince Priebus, and counselor Kellyanne Conway.
āHe will tell 10 people, āBannonās a scumbagā and āPriebus is not doing a good jobā and āKelly has a big mouthāāwhat do you think? āJamie Dimon says that youāre a problem and I shouldnāt keep you. And I spoke to Carl Icahn. And Carl thinks I need a new spokesperson,āā Epstein said.
āāSo Kelly[anne]āeven though I hired Kellyanneās husbandāKellyanne is just too much of a wildcard.ā And then he tells Bannon, āYou know I really want to keep you, but Kellyanne hates you,āā Epstein continued.
Wolff said that he had recordings of roughly ā100 hours of Epstein talking about the inner workings of the Trump White House and about his long standing, deep relationship with Donald Trump
This wonāt matter to the people who need to hear it most.
This particular recording doesnāt matter to me, someone who hates Trump and wants bad news out there to remind people how bad he is. He pitted his staff against each other. A pretty toxic workplace, but not something thatās really high priority in making a decision.
It doesnāt even establish that Epstein and Trump were close. This could all have been him listening to the rumor mill or getting a description from someone on the inside because he was a stupid rich scumbag and could get access to high profile Republican places. If heās actually got 100 hours of bombshell recordings, this is the dumbest one to lead with.
I was trying to get across more than anything is you could build a nuanced, structured, and well-supported argument for any of his major faults, and any of his supporters would not be swayed because their opinion isnāt based in fact.
Not necessarily that this was the nail in the coffin, just that you could hear a dozen of these stories a week, each of varying credibility, and it wouldnāt matter if one had him dead to rights.
No one is trying to convert the faithful at this hour. That time is long past, but there are plenty of Trump-leaners who are uncomfortable with the choice and could switch or decide to stay home if they hear something they just canāt accept.
