Donald Trump Doesn't Rule Out Pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell
HuffPost
The president said everything but "no" when asked repeatedly about the possibility.
On his way out the door to a weekend golf trip that’s set to cost American taxpayers at least $10 million, Trump stopped to answer a couple questions from reporters ― and he was awfully cagey when asked about Ghislaine Maxwell.
Asked if he would pardon or commute the sentence of Maxwell, sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s onetime girlfriend, Trump sure didn’t say “no.”
“I’m allowed to do it,” he told reporters. He then claimed that “it’s something I’ve not thought about.”
Presumably, Trump wouldn’t pardon Maxwell, who was convicted for helping Epstein sexually abuse underage girls, unless it benefited him personally — perhaps by buying her silence or otherwise somehow distracting the country from his own past relationship with Epstein.
