While the mainstream media continues its never-ending witch hunt over what brand of ketchup President Trump allegedly throws when he’s mad, something far more uncomfortable for the elite class slipped out this week—and it came straight from Trump himself.
Standing at his scenic Turnberry golf resort in Scotland with Britain’s newly minted Prime Minister Keir Starmer by his side, Trump was asked about his relationship with the Jeffrey Epstein—you know, the late pedophile billionaire whose client list somehow still hasn’t been released in full. Trump initially brushed the question off as “old history” (and it is), but then—classic Trump—he still answered. And boy, did he light a fuse.
“I threw him out. Persona non grata.” Those are Trump’s words.
He says Epstein hired away some of his Mar-a-Lago staff, after Trump had already told him not to. Twice. That second offense was the final straw. According to Trump, that’s when Epstein became persona non grata—banned from Mar-a-Lago. Done. Finished. See ya never.
But here’s the part the media doesn’t want to dwell on: Trump also made it crystal clear that he never went to Epstein’s infamous island. You know, that island. The one that other high-profile figures just can’t seem to remember going to. Not Trump. “I turned it down,” he said. Twice.
Now contrast that with former President Bill Clinton. Trump didn’t pull any punches: “Clinton went there 28 times.” Yep, twenty-eight. Let that one marinate.
And let’s be honest, if Trump had even breathed near Epstein’s private plane, it would be plastered on every cable news chyron from here to Mars. But when it’s Clinton? Silence. Maybe a half-hearted shrug from an MSNBC panel. Maybe.
Even more interesting? Trump casually name-dropped Larry Summers—yes, the former Harvard president—as another elite who “went there.” You can practically hear CNN producers screaming into their headset mics trying to cut the feed.

But don’t expect this to trend on Twitter—or X.
Why? Because this story isn’t supposed to be about Trump avoiding Epstein’s orbit. No, no. The preferred narrative is that Trump must have been involved, because he’s rich, famous, and not part of the D.C. cocktail circuit.
Never mind that he kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago.
Never mind that he refused the island invites.
Never mind that he just tossed a few more establishment names into the Epstein stew and walked off like he was teeing up on the back nine.
It doesn’t matter to the media gatekeepers. What matters is protecting their friends—and their friends’ friends—from scrutiny. After all, we still don’t have that client list, do we?

But you’re supposed to believe that the biggest scandal of the 21st century just… poof… disappeared when Epstein “died” in federal custody. Sure. Makes total sense.
Trump’s comments weren’t just a brushback pitch—they were a full-on fastball at the heads of the elite class. And he didn’t just call them out—he reminded everyone that he had the instinct to avoid the mess entirely.
Meanwhile, Clinton’s flying around on the “Lolita Express” like it’s his personal Uber.
It makes you wonder: who else was on those flight logs? Why won’t the media ask that question?
But hey, keep chasing down Trump’s golf scores. You’ll really crack the case there.
Unless… you’re afraid of what happens when you follow the Epstein trail to people who weren’t kicked out.
