A child sex abuse survivor from Palm Beach County who testified at the Ghislaine Maxwell trial in 2021 said she had met Donald Trump with Jeffrey Epstein at Mar-a-Lago in the 1990s when she was 14 and was once a contestant in Trump's Miss Teen USA beauty pageant.

She was trafficked through Trump's pageant.

When Trump says his falling out with Epstein was over Jeff hiring Trump's workers, this is what he really means. Poaching his victims, more like.

So he’s not hiding the files just because he is a co-conspirator but because these files would presumably shine a light on his own, independent heinous crimes.

Look up Trumps friendship with John Casabalancas

Also his close relationships with Roy Moore and Matt Gaetz.

Also his closeness with Vince McMahon and Sean Diddy Combs and Ted Nugent

Also with Roy Cohn, George Nader and Robert Mooris.

Why is Trump close with so many people accused of child sex crimes?
