Wiles: Trump & Epstein were "sort of young, single playboys together," on his plane. Intriguing! Please...tell us more.

Trump’s chief of staff has confirmed the president is in the Jeffrey Epstein files and travelled on the sex offender’s plane when they were young “playboys.”

Despite Trump insisting for months that the Epstein firestorm is a Democratic hoax, Susie Wiles, one of his most trusted aides, has revealed that she has read the material and that the president is in them—but “he’s not in the file doing anything awful.”

“They were, you know, sort of young, single, whatever—I know it’s a passé word but sort of young, single playboys together,” she told Vanity Fair.

Wiles’s comments were part of a bombshell interview published on Tuesday that provided a rare, often unflattering insight into the Trump administration.

The problem is there were underage girls being used, trafficked and exploited.

Did Susie read the Epstein files before the passage of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, mandating their release by the DOJ? Prior to this law, these documents were sealed by court order or subject to grand jury secrecy rules, making their status confidential or privileged.

30 - 40 years older than their "playthings"? More "locker room talk" apologizing. He is a rapist and pedophile. Just say it.

Other than that, I'm sure these two repellent assholes considered themselves "playboys."

As best as I can, at one point Epstein points and gestures and says, "One for you and one for me!"

Trump leans toward him and says, "Look at that one there!" ( or similar); and then he leans over again and adds, "She's probably too old for you!" In response, Epstein doubles over, laughing.
