(11,885 posts)Because he knows Epstein will talk , and next thing he'll claim he's a liar and a crook , and he hardly knew him. Maybe threaten him with suggestions he will be hurt in one way or another if he talks, but he will talk anyway, and trump is scared now because he can put him away too. He'll do stuff like that with Mueller too, and he will tamper with both witnesses.

(1,977 posts)Within an hour of the report that Barr will not recuse himself, Trump starts talking about not knowing Epstein and feeling sorry for Acosta.
Sure its a huge coincidence.

(1,977 posts)But now there are five threads about him "clarifying" his statement and not being recused from the SDNY case.
Which leads most people to wonder why Trump forced him to un-recuse himself.

Oh, he's a "fan" of the guy all right.

(46,038 posts)Trump would continue defending Epstein if this weren't so outrageous. And guilty by association if he didn't detach himself.
Now, that being said, Trump IMO would be inclined to pardon if Epstein offered him money to do so.

It is a lieas is virtually everything he says.
He may ultimately claim that he never met him.
