Discredited author Michael Wolff once encouraged Jeffrey Epstein to blackmail then-presidential candidate Donald Trump — insisting the convicted pedophile could generate a “debt” from him.
The Trump-obsessed writer’s email exchanges with Epstein were among the trove of documents released by the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday.
In one email, Wolff floated the possibility of intimidating Trump for his own benefit — as he warned Epstein that the then-GOP candidate could be asked about their alleged ties while on the campaign trail.
“I hear CNN planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you — either on air or in scrum afterwards,” Wolff wrote to Epstein in December 2015.
"I think you should let him hang himself," he added in a follow-up the next day. If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency. You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you, or, if it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt.”
Wolff — who penned the “Fire and Fury” supposed tell-all about the first Trump administration — went on to say it was possible the then-candidate could have spoken glowingly about the sex trafficker.
“Of course, it is possible that, when asked, he’ll say Jeffrey is a great guy and has gotten a raw deal and is a victim of political correctness, which is to be outlawed in a Trump regime,” Wolff noted.

Oh BS. Isn’t solicitation of committing a felony a crime, worth pursuing by a grand jury?
That particular form of pattern recognition is strictly forbidden hereabouts. Just you wait and see . . .
Michael Wolff has made a lot of money writing trash about President Trump ...
...Jeffrey Epstein to blackmail then-presidential candidate Donald Trump — insisting the convicted pedophile could generate a “debt” from him....
There you have it, Epstein’s secret superpower
The utterly discredited Wolff and disgraceful Epstein think President Trump will claim he barely knew Epstein and never boarded his plane. Which they knew wasn’t true, so they could call Trump a liar and imply he was guilty of ever so much more. But Trump wasn’t dumb enough.
And, why would Wolff have a tip about questions planned for Trump?
Is this a crime?
Do you have any roof Mossad was involved?
Yes. There is a lot of circumstantial evidence to that end.
