Rapid Response 47, an official White House X account, fired off a message noting that in her new posthumous memoir about surviving #Epstein’s abuse, Giuffre says that #Trump was friendly & that he offered to help her find babysitting work. The account later added, “Democrats redacted the victim’s name because the victim said Trump ‘couldn’t have been friendlier,’ was a ‘gentleman,’ & that she didn’t witness any wrongdoing.”

The encounter was *perfectly innocent*—just *several hours* of #Trump brainstorming ideas for babysitting clients, a familiar act of generosity from a man known for his passion for mentoring young people. (Giuffre cannot be subpoenaed, because she died by suicide in April.)

The White House’s response raises several questions. First, the conversation Giuffre recalled having with #Trump took place at Mar-a-Lago. The email in question described an encounter at #Epstein’s home, where the interaction may have included more than babysitting tips. Further, contextualizing this email by noting which girl it involved is a strange way to respond to a “fake” document.

#Epstein’s emails also imply that #Trump was aware of his #SexTrafficking scheme. “Of course he knew about the girls,” Epstein wrote in an email. If I met a teenager who I knew to be a likely victim of a sex-trafficking ring, I’d like to think that I’d try to help them contact #law enforcement or get away. Also, if I discovered that a close friend was running a sex-trafficking ring, maybe I’d reconsider our friendship, rather than engaging in long, pleasant chats w/ his victims.
The White House’s responses fit a pattern of suspicious behavior from the president on this matter. #Trump has said of #Epstein’s accomplice, #GhislaineMaxwell, “I wish her well”—a strange thing to say about a #convicted #felon who systematically abused young girls. His admin has granted her a cushy upgrade for her stint in prison, including a transfer to a minimum-security camp & puppy visits. This has the appearance of a #QuidProQuo.
