00:00MAGA is having a crisis of confidence, but it's not over Trump's Medicaid cuts or his mass
00:05deportation campaign. They love all of that. What they don't love is that the Trump DOJ is now
00:11denying that the late child sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein had any kind
00:17of quote unquote client list or that his death was anything other than a suicide. They're mad at
00:23Trump's attorney general, Pam Bondi, accusing her of incompetence or worse, a cover up. But how come
00:29MAGA is never mad at Trump for, you know, being friends with Jeffrey Epstein for all his connections
00:35to Epstein over the decades? How come they never saw the writing on the wall when Trump got quite
00:41prickly and even nervous last year when he was asked on Fox about declassifying a certain set of files?
00:47Would you declassify the 9-11 files? Yeah. Would you declassify JFK files? Yeah. I did. I did a lot
00:54of it. Would you declassify the Epstein files? Yeah. Yeah, I would. All right. I guess I would.
01:00I think that less so because, you know, you don't know. You don't want to affect people's lives if
01:05it's phony stuff in there because it's a lot of phony stuff with that whole world. But I think I would
01:11or at least I... Do you think that would restore trust? Help restore trust? Yeah. I don't know about
01:14Epstein so much as I do the others. I don't know about Epstein as much as I do the others.
01:19Are you kidding me? Trump knows Epstein better than most people on planet Earth.
01:24So while MAGA may be obsessed with Pam Bondi and before her The Clintons, we here at Zeteo have got
01:29you covered when it comes to Trump and Epstein. Everything you need to know about these two best
01:33buddies going back almost 40 years. So here we go. Let's start in 1987. That's when Epstein and Trump's
01:40friendship begins. At least that's what Trump told New York Magazine in 2002. By 1990, the two men have
01:46officially become neighbors after Epstein buys a mansion in Palm Beach, just one mile away from
01:51Trump's Mar-a-Lago. According to Roger Stone, Trump once said that Epstein's pool was filled with young
01:56girls when he visited, telling Stone that it was nice to see Epstein. Let the neighborhood kids use
02:01his pool. The neighborhood kids. In 1992, Epstein and Trump are filmed partying together at Trump's
02:07Mar-a-Lago club with cheerleaders for the Buffalo Bills and chatting about the women around them.
02:11That same year, Trump hosted an even more exclusive party at Mar-a-Lago for a quote calendar girl
02:17competition with just him, Epstein and almost 30 women. Between 1993 and 1997, Trump flies on Jeffrey
02:25Epstein's private jet at least seven times. Seven times according to flight logs released by Trump's
02:31own AG Pam Bondi earlier this year. Now we come to the year 2000, a big year for the dynamic duo.
02:37Trump and Epstein are pictured together at Mar-a-Lago along with Melania prior to her becoming
02:42Trump's third wife and Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's sidekick who would later be convicted for child
02:46sex trafficking. 2000 was also the year that one of Epstein's most prominent victims, the late
02:51Virginia Giuffre, was allegedly recruited into Epstein and Maxwell's sex ring while she was working as a
02:57locker room attendant at, wait for it, Mar-a-Lago. That same year, reporter Michael Corcoran of Maximum
03:04Golf Magazine documents Trump greeting Epstein, Maxwell and a young woman accompanying them as they
03:11board onto Trump's private jet along with Trump's family for a trip to Mar-a-Lago. Trump supporters
03:17like to claim that their man had no idea about Epstein's pedophilia. And yet in 2002, in that interview
03:22with New York Magazine, Trump describes Epstein as a lot of fun and liking beautiful women almost as much
03:27as he did, specifically those, Trump says, on the, quote, younger side. Come 2004, though, Trump and Epstein
03:35have a major falling out after going to war over the purchase of a Palm Beach property. Trump ultimately
03:40won that battle, selling it off a few years later. Now, in 2008, Epstein is finally convicted for
03:46soliciting minors for prostitution, making him an official sex offender. Only he's granted a
03:53non-prosecution agreement signed off on by the U.S. attorney for Southern Florida, Alex Acosta,
03:58who Trump would later hire as his labor secretary. This allowed Epstein to plead guilty to only state,
04:04not federal charges, and avoid a possible life sentence. In 2015, Gorka publishes Epstein's
04:09infamous black book, which Epstein reportedly used to keep track of all his friends and associates.
04:14Not only is Donald Trump listed in it, but so is his former wife, Ivana, his current wife, Melania,
04:18and his daughter, Ivanka. 2019, Epstein is arrested by the FBI on sex trafficking charges. He's accused
04:25of sexually abusing dozens of underage girls. A month later, after being denied bail, Epstein is found
04:31dead in his jail cell after dying by suicide. Epstein's death then kickstarts a wave of conspiracy
04:38theories, many of which Trump either fuels or refuses to deny.
04:42Do you really think that Clinton's are involved in Jeffrey Epstein's death?
04:45I have no idea. I know he was on his plane 27 times, and he said he was on the plane four times.
04:51But when they checked the plane log, Bill Clinton, who is a very good friend of Epstein,
04:56he was on the plane about 27 or 28 times. So why did he say four times?
05:02Now, of course, Trump supporters would say I'm being a bit too hard on him, that he was just asking
05:06questions. Well, in that case, I have a question. If someone did manage to kill Epstein while he was
05:11in a federal prison, wouldn't it have been more likely to be someone with a bit more power than
05:15a former president like Bill Clinton? Maybe someone like the guy who was actually president in 2019
05:21when Epstein died. I mean, I'm just asking questions. 2020, Trump sends well wishes, well wishes
05:28to Epstein's co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell, after a report asked him about her being on trial.
05:34According to journalist and Trump biographer Michael Wolff, Trump considered pardoning Maxwell
05:39because he worried about what she might say at her trial. Hmm. Four years later, in 2024,
05:45just days before the election, Michael Wolff releases a series of audio recordings from
05:49interviews he did with Epstein in 2017. Listen to what Epstein says about his friendship with Trump.
05:54So how do you know this?
05:57That was close to shape.
05:59Not only was he apparently his closest friend, but here's the big one. In June 2025, in the midst of
06:04their bitter feud, billionaire and former Trump ally and donor Elon Musk tweets,
06:09time to drop the really big bum. Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.
06:14Now, Musk has since deleted that tweet. Maybe he realized it doesn't look great to have funded
06:18someone you claim was associated with a pedophile. But still, Musk made this huge accusation about
06:24Trump. And then we all just moved on from it. We're only now talking about Epstein again because
06:29Trump's bumbling AG after claiming in February that the Epstein client list was sitting on her desk
06:34is now saying that list apparently doesn't even exist. And yet Trump earlier this month rushed to
06:40her defense and insisted we go back to not talking about his old pal, Jeffrey Epstein.
06:45Yeah, sure.
06:46Could I just interrupt for a little second?
06:49Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein? This guy's been talked about for years.
06:54I don't mind answering.
06:55I mean, I can't believe you're asking a question on Epstein.
06:58The president should actually count himself lucky that the media and MAGA are only asking
07:02Bondi questions about Epstein because the real person should be answering questions about Epstein
07:06and his own decades-long friendship and association with a man described by a judge as the most
07:11infamous pedophile in American history and who died mysteriously in federal prison during
07:16his presidency is Donald Trump.
