Trump threatens to sue ‘third-rate writer’ Michael Wolff for ‘conspiring’ with Epstein
Notice what's missing.
President Donald Trump has indicated he plans to sue discredited journalist and author Michael Wolff for “conspiring” with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to harm him politically.
The legal threat came after the Department of Justice released more than 3.5 million pages in the latest trove of Epstein files on Friday.
“It looked like this guy Wolff, who’s a writer, was conspiring with Epstein to do harm to me,” Trump said Saturday night during a press gaggle aboard Air Force One. “I didn’t see it myself, but I was told by some very important people that not only does it absolve me; it’s the opposite of what people were hoping — you know, the radical Left.”

“Wolff, who’s a third-rate writer, was conspiring with Jeffrey Epstein to hurt me politically or otherwise, and that came through loud and clear,” he added. “So we’ll probably sue Wolff on that.”
The president noted he may also file a lawsuit against the Epstein estate, but confirmed that he’ll “certainly” sue Wolff.
Epstein “was conspiring with Wolff to do harm to me politically. That’s not a friend,” he concluded.
The convicted sex offender apparently tried to set up a meeting between Wolff and lawyer Ken Starr, who famously led the 1990s Whitewater investigation into then-President Bill Clinton. The meeting was said to be centered on a possible indictment against Trump.
