A newly resurfaced video shows convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein speaking about himself and Donald Trump during a 2010 deposition, five years before Trump announced his presidential run and nearly a decade before Epstein’s death by apparent suicide.
In the footage, posted on X by progressive media outlet MeidasTouch, an attorney asked Epstein if he had a “personal relationship” with Trump.
“What do you mean by ‘personal relationship,’ sir?” Epstein replied.
“Have you socialized with him?” the attorney asked.
“Yes, sir,” Epstein answered.
“Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in the presence of females under the age of 18?” the attorney asked.
Epstein took a long pause, which included a slight shake of his head, and finally responded: “Though l’d like to answer that question, at least today, l’m going to have to assert my Fifth, Sixth, and 14th Amendment rights, sir.”
The contents of the video have been previously reported. However, the footage itself had not been widely seen.
