For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

However, some reports put the friendship ending as late as 2007 when Trump barred Epstein from Mar-a-Lago after the financier behaved inappropriately toward a club member’s teenage daughter.

A Mar-a-Lago member told the Miami Herald that, in October 2007, Trump had “kicked Epstein out after Epstein harassed the daughter of a member.”

Ooooh, Donny is looking out for the young girls. We were all so terribly wrong about him. How could we be so foolish?

Trump wouldn't kick Epstein out for harassing a teenage girl unless he was jealous.

I disagree, it's one thing to harass "the help" and another to harass a member's daughter. Especially if the member knew what Epstein was up to. Also, you don't go after your own.
