Michael Wolff claims Jeffrey Epstein feared Donald Trump

Journalist and Trump biographer Michael Wolff claims that the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein allegedly feared Donald Trump. According to Wolff, Epstein viewed Trump’s presidential ambitions as a significant threat that ‘changed the rules of the game’ for him personally.

Wolff asserts that Epstein believed he possessed compromising information regarding both himself and Trump but declined to release it publicly due to fear of the consequences. Wolff quoted Epstein as saying, ‘Maybe I am sexually obsessed with children, but I don’t want to die.’

The claims also include an alleged 2004 business dispute in which Trump reportedly threatened to expose a money laundering scheme involving an influential Russian businessman. Wolff suggests Epstein believed Trump played a role in initiating the Palm Beach police investigation into Epstein’s conduct. These claims are based on Wolff’s testimony and have not been independently confirmed.
