Did Donald Trump realize what he was saying here??? Because this is actually YUGE! On Monday the President finally revealed - for the first time, so far as we know - the reason he and good pal Jeffrey Epstein had a falling out all those years ago. It was a strange move given he's been trying to deny they were ever friends. What he said was that he got upset about his fellow businessman poaching his workers: "He stole people that worked for me. I said, 'Don't ever do that again.' He did it again, and I threw him out of the place, persona non grata." We've been covering this beat a long time... unfortunately for us and for the country. But it meant our minds immediately jumped to Virginia Giuffre. Before her apparent suicide this year, she was the most vocal Epstein victim - famously going public back in 2015 to say she was trafficked to Prince Andrew when she was just 17 years old. The thing is, Virginia was trafficked from Mar-a-Lago, Trump's Palm Beach club/home/other White House. It's a part of the story that has been public for years. Ghislaine Maxwell found the teen working at the club's spa in the summer of 2000. This "beautiful, well spoken, well mannered woman with an English accent," as Virginia put it, convinced her to become "a traveling masseuse" for her "super rich" boss - despite her lack of training. We know the rest of the story, of course. Epstein and Maxwell took sexual advantage of their new young "masseuse" as she became one of a number of young "slaves" - Maxwell's word. All because she got a summer job at Donald Trump's club. The infamous photo of Prince Andrew with Virginia Roberts, who says she was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein to have sex with the Royal when she was just 17. / (c) BBC/WENN We thought of Virginia but then thought... surely he's not referring to that?? He wouldn't come out and talk about being annoyed his pal was poaching teens for his sex trafficking ring...

Pressed on the matter Tuesday by a DailyMail.com reporter - but in the company of multiple reporters on Air Force One, apparently - Trump elaborated on his falling out with Epstein. Which employees were taken? "Were some of them young women?" one reporter asked. Trump answered: "Well, I don't want to say." But then he added: "Everyone knows the people that were taken. It was the concept of 'taking people that work for me is bad.' But that story's been pretty well out there. And the answer is yes, they were." He then said it was "people that work in the spa," adding - and we mean doing an ad: "We have a great spa, one of the best spas in the world at Mar-a-Lago. And people were taken out of the spa, hired by him. In other words, gone. Other people would come and complain, 'This guy is taking people from the spa.'" Young women. From the spa. He absolutely is talking about Virginia Giuffre, and others apparently. Trump said he confronted Epstein - but reiterated, as on Monday, that he was primarily upset his workers were being poached: "I didn't know that. And then when I heard about it, I told him, I said, 'Listen, we don't want you taking our people, whether it was spa or not spa. I don't want him taking people.' And he was fine. And then not too long after that, he did it again. And I said, 'Out of here.'" When asked point-blank if one of the "young women" was Virginia Giuffre, Trump answered: "I don't know. I think she worked at the spa. I think so. I think that was one of the people, yeah. He stole her." Trump: People were taken out of the spa, hired by Epstein... I told him we don't want you taking our people, whether it's spa or not spa. He did it again, I said out of here. Reporter: Was one of the stolen people Virginia Giuffre? Trump: I think so. He stole her. pic.twitter.com/sLoDdKNasn - Acyn (@Acyn) July 29, 2025 "He stole her." Donald Trump is absolutely talking about being aware of Epstein's sex trafficking ring, right? He's saying he was told at the time. He's saying people were complaining about it, he said, "when I heard about it." He's not talking about reading the reporting years later like the rest of us, he's saying he knew way back then. Insanely, he's saying he was upset about his employees being poached, not about what was happening to them. But is there any other way to read this?? An underage girl may be able to work at a club for a summer job, and that's no scandal at all. But for her to be given a job flying around the world with an extremely wealthy man? Hired as an on-call masseuse with no training?? JFC, there's no way someone could have heard about that and not known that it was shady as hell, right? And Trump is saying that's what he knew! Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell on the Lolita Express. / (c) MEGA/WENN/Department of Justice Trump is saying he knew about this and did nothing. Trump is admitting he was told about Epstein taking underage girls from
