From Fox News: President Donald Trump revealed what made him stop speaking to Jeffrey Epstein for years, as he detailed how the disgraced financier “did something that was inappropriate” while visiting his Florida home.
While speaking to reporters during a meeting with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer at the Trump Turnberry golf course in Turnberry, Scotland, on Monday, Trump said Epstein was previously thrown out of his Palm Beach Mar-a-Lago estate for attempting to hire his employees.
The pair reportedly fell out of touch in 2004 following a dispute over Trump outbidding Epstein in a bankruptcy auction for a coastal estate, according to The Palm Beach Post.
“He stole people that worked for me,” Trump said. “I said, ‘Don’t ever do that again.’ He did it again, and I threw him out of the place, persona non grata.”
Trump went on to add that he “never had the privilege of going to [Epstein’s] island.”
“I did turn it down, but a lot of people in Palm Beach were invited to his island,” Trump told reporters. “In one of my very good moments, I turned it down. I didn’t want to go to his island.”
