Epstein bragged about Clinton, Trump in jail

-

Excerpts from a bombshell new book claim that dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, during his final days in prison, gossiped and bragged to fellow inmates about his alleged ties to Bill Clinton and Donald Trump.

The book also claims Epstein told inmates he was only motivated by ‘p***y.’

The new book, called The Spider, by former National Enquirer executive editor Barry Levine, looks into Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently jailed and facing charges over her alleged dealings with Epstein.

Epstein, a registered sex offender, killed himself at age 66 in August 2019 at a Manhattan jail while awaiting trial on sex traffickin­g charges.

Maxwell, 58, was arrested on July 2 in New Hampshire. She has pleaded not guilty to charges she helped Epstein recruit and groom underaged girls. The new book, excerpts of which have been obtained by the Sun, reports that Epstein chatted in his final days with inmates at New York’s notorious Metropolit­an Correction­al Center, which in recent times has also housed Mexican drug lord “El Chapo” Guzman.

Michael “Miles” Tisdale, jailed for drugs offences, said Epstein told him at the jail that Epstein was only motivated by “p***y.”

Epstein insisted to Tisdale that though he was accused of having sex with very young girls, they were in reality “fifteen, sixteen, seventeen and eighteen years old — not eight or nine years old!” Another former cellmate, William “Dollar Bill” Mersey, told Levine that Epstein said he once took a private jet flight with Trump and a girl aboard. Epstein, according to Mersey, wouldn’t land in Atlantic City at Trump’s request, saying the city was full of “white trash.”
