Epstein scheduled lunches with venture capitalist Peter Thiel and real-estate investor Thomas Barrack in 2016, according to documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. At the time, both were high-profile financial backers of Trump’s campaign.
Epstein invited Thiel and Barrack to separate meetings with Vitaly Churkin, Russia’s ambassador to the United Nations. Churkin, who died of an apparent heart attack in early 2017, had at least eight meetings scheduled with Epstein between 2015 and Churkin’s death, the documents show.
The documents, which include thousands of pages of emails and schedules from 2013 to 2017, don’t make reference to any meetings or conversations between Trump and Epstein. The documents also make no mention of any scheduled meetings with Hillary Clinton or her husband, Bill Clinton.
Epstein had a history of using relationships like steppingstones to get closer to powerful people, and to try to restore his reputation in the years after he became a convicted sex offender in 2008. He had been friendly with both Trump and Bill Clinton in the 1990s and early 2000s.
Exactly. But being in those circles conducting business you run into these people in social gatherings. Does not mean you are a active participant. If the DS had dirt on Trump HRC could have saved her money with the fake Dossier. There is your sign he is clean.

When Trump learned about Epstein he kicked him out of Mar-A-Lago. Remember that?

It was his golf club, not Mar a Lago
