Trump biographer Tim O’Brien told MSNBC that President Trump is distorting facts when he says he didn’t know Jeffrey Epstein, saying “they knew each other well.”
Said O’Brien: “When the president stands on the White House lawn and said he barely knew Jeffrey Epstein, that’s not supported by the fact pattern. They knew each other well from 1987 to at least 2002. He traveled on Epstein’s jet at least once. Epstein was either a member of Mar-a-Lago in name or substance, but he was there all the time and the president wanted him to be there.”
He added: “I spent about two years, a lot of time with Trump in the mid-2000s, and he routinely talked about Jeffrey Epstein as someone he admired, he felt they were in sync.”
