Epstein Email Suggests Possible Fabrication of Trump Quote in NY Mag Story

From: Thomas Jr., Lando iii Ti iii Sent: 6/1/2016 3:25:15 PM To: Jeffrey Epstein [jeevacation@gmail.com] Subject: The book on you... Importance: — High Keep getting calls from that guy doing a book on you -- John Connolly. He seems very interested in your relationship with the news media. I told him you were a hell of a guy:) One oddity: he said he had been told that that quote from Trump about you in the original NY Mag story had been manufactured. ie, that I did not actually speak to Donald. Which is bull shit of course. I am sure that is what Trump told him as they have been getting a lot of questions from reporters about you. He actually seemed to be a sensible guy/solid reporter -- just from the few conversations I had with him. I think he is close to finishing up. Did you ever speak to him?
