Trump says he's "exonerated" from Epstein scandal because he "was told by some very important people" that he was

Trump threatened to sue the estate of Jeffrey Epstein following the latest release of the Department of Justice‘s case files on the late sex trafficker.

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Saturday, Trump said the documents revealed a conspiracy between Epstein and journalist Michael Wolff. He said he might sue Wolff as well, for taking part in a supposed plot aimed at derailing his presidential campaign.

“It looked like this guy Wolff, who’s a writer, was conspiring with Epstein to do harm to me,” he said. “I didn’t see it myself but I was told by some very important people that not only does it absolve me, it’s the opposite of what people were hoping, you know, the radical left.”
