Supposedly, Epstein was a member of Trump's Mar-a-Lago country club (he lived in the same city, Palm Beach) so of course they were on a friendly basis. At some point (not sure of the year) Trump got word that Epstein had propositioned the under age daughter of another club member, and that's when Trump banned him from property and ended whatever friendship they had. Years later, when Epstein got busted the first time, Trump called the lawyer that was representing several of the victims, and offered whatever assistance he could provide.
