An email chain recently released from the files of deceased financier Jeffrey Epstein suggests that former President Donald Trump traveled on Epstein’s private jet more frequently than previously documented. The email, dated January 7, 2020, indicates that Trump is listed as a passenger on at least eight flights between 1993 and 1996.
The email, part of a larger correspondence about Epstein’s flight records, notes that Trump was a passenger on multiple occasions when Ghislaine Maxwell, who was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2022 for sex trafficking crimes, was also aboard the aircraft. The communication, which has redacted names of both the sender and recipient, includes a mention of an unidentified assistant U.S. attorney from the Southern District of New York.
Details revealed in the email highlight that Trump traveled with various individuals, including his then-wife Marla Maples, his daughter Tiffany Trump, and his son Eric Trump. One flight in 1993 reportedly listed only Trump and Epstein as passengers, while another included a third individual who was 20 years old at the time.
The email further specifies that on two of the flights, at least one female passenger was named, who could potentially serve as a witness in cases involving Maxwell. These flights, according to the email, contribute to a growing body of evidence regarding Trump’s travel history with Epstein.
Trump has publicly stated that he and Epstein ceased their friendship around 2004, prior to Epstein’s first arrest. He has consistently denied any allegations of wrongdoing related to Epstein, asserting that his presence on the flights does not imply any illegal activity.
In recent developments, Maxwell was transferred from a Florida prison to a minimum-security facility in Texas, where she has reportedly sought a pardon from Trump. The details of her meetings with the Deputy U.S. Attorney General in July have not been disclosed.
As the implications of these revelations unfold, the connections between Trump and Epstein continue to draw public interest and scrutiny.
