Donald Trump has claimed that Joe Biden may have put his name in the Jeffrey Epstein files as payback.
While speaking in Scotland on Monday, Trump brought up his conspiracy theory that Joe Biden, James Comey and Merrick Garland – a trio he called the “worst scum on Earth”, put his name in the Epstein files to smear his reputation, adding that they had control of the Epstein Justice Department files for 4 years.
He said: “I was running against someone who ran the files … They can easily put something in the files that’s a phony.”
Trump went on to say that Biden’s administration had control of the files and if there was something in them, they would have made it public. He labelled the Biden administration his “enemy”, so appeared to be hinting that they allegedly put his name in the files.
The president’s name shows up multiple times in the files – but it has been reported that his name is not connected to anything inappropriate.
