Melania said to have sent coded Epstein message about 'exquisitely vulnerable' husband
Melania Trump's statement regarding her involvement with Jeffrey Epstein has endangered President Donald Trump, a biographer has claimed. Michael Wolff, the author behind Fire and Fury: Inside the White House, believes the First Lady's statement is not just about creating distance between her and child sex offender Epstein, but about dragging Trump back into the spotlight on his ties to the notorious child abuser.Melania Trump delivered a six-minute statement earlier this month addressing her connection to Epstein, triggering significant controversy and raising troubling questions about Donald Trump's own relationship with the disgraced financier.Melania declared, "To be clear, I never had a relationship with Epstein or his accomplice, [Ghislaine] Maxwell," directly distancing herself from the scandal.Wolff, during an appearance on Inside Trump's Head, said, "The first thing was, ‘You’re not going to pin this Epstein stuff on me. This Epstein stuff is your problem. You got us into this'. To me, [it] read, ‘Congress should investigate you.’ You, my husband, the president."She opened up the one area that I think Donald Trump is exquisitely vulnerable on, which is that period in the 1990s, early 2000s. A period of [where] lots of models, girls, his whole connection to the modeling industry. “We come back, always, to the question: why would she do this? Why would she call attention to this particular moment in time? I think that she’s saying [to Trump], that’s your problem, and don’t put it on me. You better protect me in this."Department of Justice materials revealed Trump was mentioned thousands of times in Epstein-related files, including correspondence showing Trump's relationship with Epstein was more than casual. Melania's strategic silence on Trump's innocence has fueled speculation about potential legal exposure ahead.Due to the sheer volume of Epstein-related materials released by the DOJ, many of the documents contain unverified, uncorroborated allegations that do not constitute evidence and do not establish wrongdoing. Trump is not facing any criminal charges or investigations related to the allegation.
