Jeffrey Epstein
Donald Trump’s campaign traveled to Montana, Wyoming and Colorado using a plane that once belonged… to Jeffrey Epstein, the discredited financier convicted of serious sex crimes against underage girls, now deceased.
Mechanical problems
Trump had encountered mechanical problems with his Trump Force One plane, forcing his campaign to seek an alternative for his recent travels.
The public registry
They turned to Private Jet Services Group, a supplier regularly used by Trump, who supplied them with a Gulfstream G-550… social network users then identified the link between the Gulfstream Jet’s serial number, N550GP, and Jeffrey Epstein, using information from the Federal Aviation Administration’s public registry.
During his arrest
Jeffrey Epstein reportedly last used this aircraft in 2019, when he was arrested by the FBI at Teterboro Airport, New Jersey, on sex trafficking charges.
Another personal aircraft
It should be clarified that the Gulfstream G-550 is not Epstein’s infamous Lolita Express, which was allegedly used by Epstein to transport girls under 18 to various destinations and was at the center of Epstein’s sex-trafficking charges, but another personal plane of the infamous billionaire.
Unaware
Following the revelations, a campaign official said that Trump’s team was unaware that Epstein was the plane’s former owner and would only have learned of his past after being contacted by journalists for comment. The plane has since reportedly changed ownership twice.
Past links
This coincidence once again revives memories of the obviously close past ties between Epstein and Trump, in any case certainly closer than the former president is willing to admit.
"Great guy"
Trump had even praised Epstein in the past, calling him a “great guy”. They lived near each other in Florida.
The dispute
According to the Washington Post, the two men frequented the same parties at Mar-a-Lago and in Manhattan, before a dispute over a Palm Beach property cooled their relationship.
