According to author and Donald Trump biographer Michael Wolff, comments made several days ago by Elon Musk suggesting that Trump is in the infamous Jeffrey Epstein files are probably accurate, as Epstein possessed Polaroid photos of himself and Trump with “girls of an uncertain age.”
Wolff made those explosive allegations this week on “The Court of History” podcast with hosts Sidney Blumenthal and Sean Wilentz.
“They were in the safe, and I have seen him [Epstein] on other occasions take them out of the safe.”
“And I think it’s certainly not unlikely that they were in the safe when the FBI came in after his arrest and took everything from the house, including everything that was in the safe.”
Epstein was awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges in July of 2019 when he allegedly killed himself while in federal custody.
This is the second time Wolff has mentioned photos Epstein allegedly had in a safe at his home in New York.
In May, the author told The Daily Beast, “I have seen these pictures. I know that these pictures exist and I can describe them. There are about a dozen of them. The ones I specifically remember is the two of them with topless girls of an uncertain age sitting on Trump’s lap. And then Trump standing there with a stain on the front of his pants and three or four girls kind of bent over in laughter—they’re topless, too—pointing at Trump’s pants.”
Wolff returned to that meeting with Epstein during his interview with Blumenthal and Wilentz.
“But at any rate, at one point after Trump had been elected [in 2016], I was sitting talking to Epstein, and he said, ‘Wait a minute, I gotta show you something.’”
“And then he went into his safe and he came out with photographs. They were Polaroids, I think, and he kind of spread them out like playing cards. And it was Trump.
“I think there were a dozen of them and, and it was Trump with girls of an uncertain age at Epstein’s Palm Beach house, where all of the things that [Epstein] would ultimately be accused of took place.
“And I remember very vividly three of them. There are two in which … topless girls are sitting on Trump’s lap, and then a third in which he has a stain on the front of his pants, and the girls are kind of pointing at it, sort of bent over laughing … three or four girls, and those are the ones I specifically remember.”
To the best of his knowledge, Wolff added, the photos were taken “either in 1999 or 2000, 2001 possibly.”
Why did Epstein reveal such potentially incriminating evidence to a reporter? According to Wolff, Epstein “very much liked to gossip, and I think one of the things that drew so many people to his house, so many powerful people, was that Jeffrey was within that circle … incredibly indiscreet and incredibly funny and incredibly entertaining.”
