Maxwell accuser says she was introduced to Trump at Mar-a-Lago at age 14

The first alleged victim to testify against Ghislaine Maxwell at her sex-trafficking trial said Wednesday that she was introduced to former president Donald Trump by Jeffrey Epstein and once flew with Prince Andrew on one of the financier’s private planes.

The accuser, who testified under the pseudonym “Jane,” recalled the two encounters while being quizzed by Maxwell’s defense attorney, Laura Menninger.

Jane responded affirmatively when asked if Epstein drove her to Mar-a-Lago in a “dark green car” when she was 14 years old in the 1990s.

I notice there is no claim, hint, or implication that the former president did anything improper. Just an attempt to smear Trump by association.

Pretty certain that if Donald Trump was screwing these underage girls, we'd have heard exactly that.

The headline of the story was that she was introduced to him, nothing more. So there's probably nothing more.

The prosecution’s star witness sounds like a train wreck. She repeatedly contradicted her own prior statements to the FBI and prosecutors about important issues in the case. She said the FBI notes were wrong. She also said that “Memory is not linear.” Now, Maxwell will surely get convicted anyway but what a circus this is already!

take a chill Francis...

If a 14 year old was in an environment like that, and didnt jump up on a table and scream she’s being trafficed please help me, she’s a whore...

huge difference when any female, regardless of age is being raped against her will, and wanting to be screwed for the action and money. the rest is mere societal gibberish...

In writing is okay though.

So, it’s unusual to introduce a guest in a private club to the rich celebrity owner of the joint? And how is that possibly relevant to any issue in this trial?

I heard that, too. I thought I had seen/heard Lisa Bloom, Gloria Allred’s daughter, as an atty as well.

14 I agree with your scorn largely ...though I grew up with 14 year olds who screwed everyone willingly...crazy girls with serious daddy issues and attachment dysphoria

The 17 year old accuser

When I was young man a 17 year old with a man Andrews age ....late 30s ...was not a crime by any stretch

Even if frowned on by some....

It’s weird....women are now ultra slutty and promiscuous ....often

Yet we let them be victims of men till like 30-35 if some had their way

Fembotism likes it both ways

Some perspective would be handy

That said Epstein likely went pretty young though I’ve yet to see proof of actual pedophilia as in pre mense

That he was a freak is for sure

Peter Pan...guys like that can’t relate to grown women

Always been my armchair psychiatry

I thought the punch line was...

Wife...”I think OURS is prettier”.

We somewhat patiently wait for someone to Bring bill Clinton and that Prince Andrew dork to justice. Nothing. Then it’s worldwide headline news if it’s against President Trump.

Clinton was on more than 25 flight logs as a passenger going to the Epstein island. Where are the news flash headlines?

Satan and his Dems are still having a field day.

I believe I read an earlier report that it was at this point that Trump realized what Epstein was about, and banned him.

Could someone find the earlier article?

I saw on Instagram that the prosecutor is James Comey’s daughter. Anyone know if its true? If so, no wonder Trump gets tarnished.

True.

In the movie What's Up, Doc with Ryan O'Neill, at the end the Barbra Streisand character's father turned out to be the presiding judge over her case. That was a comedy. You'd think 2021 real life would be a little more plausible.

Clever legal strategy.

Donald Trump was in the beauty pageant business for years. I think he bought Miss Teen USA and others in the mid-nineties.

Fourteen is considered OLD for starting a modeling/fashion career. A lot of pretty young girls are taken advantage of in that industry.

It seems weird to the average person (and it may be weird) for young models and actors/actresses to be treated by their industries like employees/workers and to make demands on children that are very adult-like (I’m not talking about sex). But that is how it works.

There are also many parents who are not protective enough of their children. For example, look how Michael Jackson had young boys sleeping overnight at his home.

I don’t think we are going to get rid of child models and actors, but perhaps these industries could have greater safeguards.

Regardless, even IF (and it’s a big if) Maxwell’s girl did meet Donald Trump when she was 14, it wouldn’t necessarily mean anything nefarious on his part.

But everyone better believe that someone somewhere is conspiring to malign Donald Trump as a sex abuser (as they already have) in hopes of damaging his potential to become president again. And these folks have already proven that truth does not matter.
