Donald Trump Gives Final Answer On Whether Ghislaine Maxwell Will Be Pardoned
Author Michael Wolff has disclosed Donald Trump’s private concerns about Ghislaine Maxwell during a recent podcast appearance. In *The Daily Beast* interview, Wolff claimed the former president grew “very wary” after Maxwell’s 2020 arrest, questioning what damaging information she might reveal about him in the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Epstein, convicted of child sex abuse, died in prison in 2019. Maxwell, his accomplice, was arrested in 2020 and convicted in 2021. Wolff alleged Trump privately debated pardoning her, asking advisors: *”What could she say? What would she say?”*
According to Wolff, Trump’s inner circle feared both scenarios—Maxwell speaking out or receiving a presidential pardon. Advisors reportedly hoped she wouldn’t implicate Trump but strongly opposed clemency to avoid political fallout.
The revelations shed light on Trump’s alleged anxieties surrounding the Epstein scandal. Wolff’s claims suggest the former president weighed legal protections for Maxwell against potential reputational risks.
Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking. Her case remains controversial, with conspiracy theories still swirling about Epstein’s powerful connections.
Trump has not publicly addressed Wolff’s claims. The allegations add to ongoing speculation about his relationship with Epstein and Maxwell during their social heyday.
As Maxwell continues her prison term, questions persist about what secrets she may still hold—and how they could impact figures like Trump if ever revealed. The situation underscores the lingering shadows of the Epstein scandal in elite circles.
