She also served up BS that Trump was a \u201cgentleman\u201d and praised him\u2014obviously all to get a pardon from him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there are several places Maxwell didn\u2019t have any incentive to lie &#8211;and that is where she hurt Trump. First her testimony revealed that Trump was friends with Jeffrey Epstein before she ever met Epstein. She&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/redirect\/7b5d0ced-b6b5-40f3-a78f-f988ba656ab6?j=eyJ1IjoiZTBpcSJ9.bWAl25BLPe62fl7RlezMOITuH1P4z_cuwPSwD9m_3WI\">testified,&nbsp;<\/a>\u201cI met Mr. Epstein in 1991.\u201d In contrast, Trump&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/redirect\/560baf95-8ad6-4186-9f89-0205a7753dc2?j=eyJ1IjoiZTBpcSJ9.bWAl25BLPe62fl7RlezMOITuH1P4z_cuwPSwD9m_3WI\">told<\/a>&nbsp;New York magazine in 2002 he had been with friends with Epstein since the 1980\u2019s. \u201cI\u2019ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy,\u201d Trump stated. He then added the infamous line, \u201cHe\u2019s a lot of fun to be with.&nbsp;<strong>It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These facts help us understand why Maxwell testified that Epstein would go to Mar-a-Lago without her. Maxwell explained, about Epstein, \u201che didn&#8217;t take me with him all the time.\u201d She added, \u201che would go alone.\u201d This shows us just how close Trump and Epstein were during the height of the child sex ring\u2014which prosecutors proved ranged from 1994 to 2004.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, during the Maxwell trial, one victim testified that she was just&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/redirect\/3c9b5055-d35f-4f0e-9d49-fc3e517d46f0?j=eyJ1IjoiZTBpcSJ9.bWAl25BLPe62fl7RlezMOITuH1P4z_cuwPSwD9m_3WI\">14 years of age<\/a>&nbsp;when Epstein brought her to Mar-a-Lago and introduced her to Trump in the mid-1990\u2019s. Apparently, Epstein was so close to Trump that he even introduced him to a child he was raping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump claims he had a falling out with Epstein in 2004 after he learned Epstein had \u201cstolen\u201d a young girl from Mar-A-Lago who worked for him.

Same question for a flight with Epstein and&nbsp;<strong>one other<\/strong>&nbsp;person from Teterboro, NJ to Palm Beach, FL on April 23, 1993.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But on several of those flights, the logs tell us that Trump, Epstein and Maxwell were together for hours in the midst of the biggest child sex ring in U.S. history on the very&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/substack.com\/redirect\/3633d541-b8ba-4001-b7ac-ee7fc7470bcb?j=eyJ1IjoiZTBpcSJ9.bWAl25BLPe62fl7RlezMOITuH1P4z_cuwPSwD9m_3WI\">plane<\/a>&nbsp;used to traffic children for sex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now we have Maxwell telling us that she was also close with Trump during the time Epstein and Maxwell were recruiting, grooming, molesting and raping children.
