According to Jeffrey Epstein’s former butler, Donald Trump actually offered Epstein a position in his first administration, which was well AFTER the two allegedly had their falling out. If the butler is telling the truth, it would be evidence that Trump never actually severed ties with the disgraced Epstein, and that they may have actually been even closer than previously thought. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

According to Jeffrey Epstein's former Butler who ran his Paris estate in the days following Donald Trump's electoral college victory. In the 2016 presidential election, Donald Trump called up Jeffrey Epstein and offered him a position in his forthcoming administration. Now, we do not have solid evidence obviously, that this happened. We have to rely on the word of the butler, the word of the guy that, you know, worked for Jeffrey Epstein. So maybe this happened, maybe it didn't. But in an interview with a UK newspaper, the Butler said this, A few days after Trump's election, Mr. Epstein arrived in Paris on Monday or Tuesday, and I went to pick him up at the airport. He said, Sen, you saw that Trump is the new US President. Yes, I replied, I saw it on the news in Paris. Well, Trump asked me to work for him in the new government. Epstein said, I said, congratulations. I'm happy for you in my bad English. He said, no, I didn't accept.
Again, we have to take the butler at his word, or we have to assume the butler is not telling the truth. The question is, what does the butler have to gain from lying? Well, if he's an anti-Trump guy, which doesn't necessarily sound like it, then obviously his goal is to take down Trump. But if he's just a concerned individual, then okay, maybe. So it, it, it is kind of difficult. I will admit to just take this at face value or to dismiss it completely, right? None of us were there for that conversation between the Butler and Epstein in the car on the way from the Paris airport. So let's just dissect, assuming for a moment that this story is true. Because if the story is true, then this of course would mean that Donald Trump was completely lying to the public about cutting ties with Epstein, right?
He said, no, I cut ties with him 'cause he was a creep. And then we found out being a creep actually meant he just took a couple employees from Mar-a-Lago to go be his, uh, indentured, you know, slave, uh, uh, sex slaves. So Trump didn't actually cut ties with him and still liked him. So that blows a hole in that whole narrative from Donald Trump. The second thing it means is that this was after Epstein's first conviction and stint in, you know, club Fed. So Epstein was a known pedophile at the time, like there was no secret about it, no bones about it. I mean, the only thing, secret obviously, was the grand jury materials. But those who paid attention to
This story way back then before the second arrest, which we at Ring of Fire did, by the way, you can go back in the archives and see us talking about it, you know, 10, 12 years ago. But it would mean that Donald Trump reached out to a known pedophile and offered him a job in his administration. If the story is true, and I will say that's a big if so, we don't know. We don't know if the butler is telling the truth. We do not know if the butler is exaggerating or misremembering or completely fabricating. But this does add another layer to the ongoing Epstein scandal that unfortunately for Trump is clearly not going away anytime soon. By now, you know, Trump's big beautiful Bill has passed, but almost no one's reporting how ICE is going to get nearly 40 billion of our tax dollars a year, making it the most heavily funded law enforcement agency in US history.
