Trump Says Epstein Emails Only Prove He One Of The Most Emailed-About Men In History

WASHINGTON—In the wake of the House Oversight Committee releasing more than 20,000 pages of documents from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein, some of which raised questions about the extent of the president’s relationship with the convicted sex offender, Donald Trump on Thursday downplayed his name appearing in Epstein’s correspondence by saying it only proved he was one of the most emailed-about men in history. “MSN, Gmail, Yahoo—my name is popping up everywhere,” said Trump, assuring journalists that a 2019 email in which Epstein claimed he “knew about the girls” did nothing but demonstrate that he had been written about in thousands upon thousands more emails than former presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden. “Hardly an email goes by these days without a mention of Trump in it, and it’s been that way for a very long time. Barron [Trump] is fantastic at cyber, and he tells me that even the late, great Dale Earnhardt wasn’t emailed about as much as me. They’re doing CC, they’re doing BCC, and it’s all about Trump. You look around your inbox, folks, you check your spam folder, and you’ll see that I’m there, and that’s something we’re very proud of.” Trump criticized renewed calls to release the Epstein files in full, arguing they would only prove he had appeared in more photographs, videos, client lists, nondisclosure agreements, and victim testimonies than anyone else in the world.
