Josh Mayer reports for USA Today:
A reporter asked Trump whether he would “ever consider” a pardon for Maxwell, who met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche for two days last week to answer questions about Epstein. Critics have said the meetings with Blanche, Trump’s former personal defense lawyer, were part of a White House effort to quell the backlash over the administration’s handling of thousands of Epstein-related files in its possession.
“Well, I'm allowed to give her a pardon, but nobody's approached me with it. Nobody's asked me about it,” Trump said. “It's in the news about that, that aspect of it, but right now, it would be inappropriate to talk about it.”
Trump on July 28 also hit back at a question about whether his attorney general, Pam Bondi, has told him his name is mentioned in the federal government's Epstein files, as the Wall Street Journal reported last week.
“I haven't been overly interested in it,” Trump said. “It's a hoax that's been built up way beyond proportion.”
As usual, Trump is projecting here. "Nobody's asked me about it" can be translated to mean "my staff is working on it".
And what about "I haven't been overly interested in it"?
"FUCKING JESUS! I've tried all these distractions but people keep talking about him. It's driving me nuts!"
