Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein first crossed paths in 1987.
Trump's past friendship with predator Jeffrey Epstein — as well as his administration's release of the financier's files earlier this year — has made the businessman a target for taunters during his public appearances.
During a July rally at a General Motors facility in Michigan, one heckler yelled: “P-------- protector! P-------- protector!”
“He’s a communist!” Trump shouted back. "We’re running against communists now... we’re going to win very big."
Donald Trump Was Mentioned Over 38,000 Times in the Jeffrey Epstein Files
Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein had a falling out in the early 2000s.
Another protester held up a photo of Trump and Epstein, with the words "CHILD RAPIST" written across it.
The politician has consistently denied any wrongdoing on his part, as his friendship with Epstein ended in the mid-2000s. Trump's name was also mentioned over 38,000 times in the Epstein files the DOJ previously dropped.
Trump and the trafficker's association goes back to at least 1987, with the two being neighbors in Palm Beach, Florida. The pair also frequently partied together in New York and at the billionaire's Mar-a-Lago mansion.
Jeffrey Epstein died in jail in August 2019.
Epstein also attended Trump's 1993 wedding to Marla Maples, and they even crossed paths at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in New York back in 1999.
By the 2000s, their relationship began to break down after they had a falling out due to a real estate dispute in the Sunshine State.
Trump called Epstein was a "terrific guy" in a 2002 New York Magazine profile, adding: "It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side... I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.”
The child s-- offender was found dead in his cell at New York's Metropolitan Correctional Center in August 2019.
