In a short phone interview with The New York Occasions, Donald downplayed the fallout from his spouse’s remarks.
“It would not trouble me,” Donald stated, referring to the assertion she delivered from the White Home a day earlier.
“I did not know what the assertion was,” he added, “however I knew she was going to make an announcement.”
The remarks got here after the primary woman issued an announcement addressing long-running hypothesis about her alleged connection to Jeffrey.
“The lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein want to finish at the moment,” Melania Donald stated. “The people mendacity about me are devoid of moral requirements, humility, and respect. I don’t object to their ignorance, however slightly, I reject their mean-spirited makes an attempt to defame my popularity. I’ve by no means been pals with Epstein.”
She added, “To be clear, I by no means had a relationship with Epstein or his confederate, Ghislaine Maxwell.”
