White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis says none of the allegations in the report are true, calls it a desperate attempt by Democrats to distract Americans from Republican momentum, and says Trump kicked Epstein out of his Mar-a-Lago club because he was a creep.
Responding to
A growing body of evidence shows that Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse of young women in the mid-to-late 1990s, and the Justice Department has obstructed investigations and withheld records to protect him.
“None of these allegations are true. This 'report' is nothing more than a desperate attempt by crazed Democrats to distract Americans from the surging Republican momentum driven by President Trump's historic achievements”
