Epstein files suggest Trump laundered money for Russian oligarch

Welp, looks like Donald Trump has been caught in yet another scandal. This time, he stands accused of laundering money with Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev, as political analyst Brian Allen explained:

🚨 BREAKING — Epstein Files:

Donald Trump bought a Palm Beach mansion for $41M, financed by a loan tied to Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev, then flipped it to the same oligarch for $95M.

Same buyer. Massive markup. No renovations. No logic.

That’s textbook money laundering.

Trump accused of flipping properties for huge profit

This is all over quite a notorious Floridian property.

Trump acquired the Maison de l’Amitie estate in Florida in 2004. The six-acre property set him back a cool $41.35m.

This is the property where he outbid the paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and the feud between the two supposedly began.

But that’s not the end of the story.

Just four years later, Trump sold the property to Rybolovlev in 2008 for a whopping £95m. Over double what he paid.

Trump claims he made some renovations, installing some of the gaudy gold fittings he loves. But surely he didn’t install enough of this bullshit to double the fucking property value?

Red flags galore

The issue with this comes down to the timing. This $95m sale occurred just as the US housing market was about to crash. And at the time Trump, was facing a $40m personal guarantee on a loan from Deutsche Bank, something he was struggling to pay.

One of the newly released emails from Jeffrey Epstein sheds more light on Donald Trump’s real estate model and gives as an example a mysterious figure referred to only as "R."

"R" is almost certainly Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev.

Strange timing for a Russian billionaire to step in and buy the property, wasn’t it? And for double the cost. Especially when said billionaire’s ex-wife claimed he was using it to hide assets at the time.

Oh, and then he just tore the whole place down in 2016 anyway, having never lived in it.

Investigator Glenn Simpson testified to congress that the “extreme markup” on the property was suspicious.

Yes, it fucking is.

All coming out

Trump’s name is in the Epstein files thousands of times:
