First of all, suspicions are the moment when it happened. Shortly earlier, Maxwell, who served 20 years imprisonment for recruiting teenagers later used sexually, was unexpectedly transferred to a prison with minimal rigor. This is a step that experts describe as “unprecedented”. Officially, this is only a coincidence. Unofficially it smells of a dirty, explicit agreement.
Secondly, the interrogation was carried out by Todd Blanche – a former Trump's private lawyer, currently the deputy prosecutor general. This personal issue itself seems controversial. In addition, Maxwell in her statements almost melted over the US President, flooding him with flattery: Trump is a “gentleman in every respect”, she never experienced “nothing wrong” on his part, “admires his extraordinary achievements” as a president.
For Trump, whose opponents have been pointing to his close connections with Epstein for years, this is a real gift. For weeks, his administration has been criticized for delays in considering the files of Epstein. Even loyal supporters began to worry. Now Trump can breathe a sigh of relief: even Maxwell – a woman who has been closest to Epstein for years – “publicly” stated that the president has nothing to do with all this. From a political point of view, it is at a premium – at least at first glance.
Joy in the Magician camp and restraint in the right -wing camp
Among the die -hard supporters of Trump, Maxwell's testimonies were enthusiastically received. Characters such as Marjorie Taylor Greene or activist Laura Loomer talked about the president's “total rehabilitation”. Also, right -wing influencers, such as Rogan O'Handley, spread the news that Maxwell stuck the last nail into the casket of all rumors about the Epstein scandal: if Trump was loaded, Deep State [tzw. głębokie państwo, czyli osoby faktycznie sprawujące władzę] It would have revealed a long time ago.
However, not all right -wing representatives shared this opinion. The restraint of Fox News, Trump's tube, as well as prominent people, such as conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who admitted Maxwell's statements, but did not celebrate them with euphoria, was noticeable. This has its justification: Maxwell exaggerated so much that even the die -hard strategists of the magician it is difficult to seriously treat her statements as “evidence”.

Does Trump really believe that his supporters will swallow everything?
This is the real weakness of this staging: Maxwell praised Trump so excessively that it looked like an open game. Who in each second sentence emphasizes that the president “has always been a gentleman” sounds less like a witness, and more like a person applying for a favor. Democrats immediately called this “a request for pardon in the form of an interview.”
So the question remains: does Trump really believe that his supporters will swallow everything, no matter how thick this staging is sewn? Of course, some of the Magician supporters cheer. But The restraint of the conservative mainstream shows that even many allies are aware of: too much praise can arouse suspicions. And this is the risk – this “purification of the allegations” can quickly turn against him.
“Something like this does not happen just like that”
The lawyer Ghislaine Maxwell already talked about Trump in an extremely friendly tone a few weeks earlier, suggesting the possibility of intervention and even pardon. And Trump himself? Already in 2020, shortly after Maxwell, he publicly wished her “all the best”. The words that then caused irritation today seem to be almost announced.
The fact is that from the beginning of August this year. Maxwell is in much better conditions. It is very unusual in the case of sexual criminal to a plant with minimal rigor, known primarily from art classes. “Something like this is not happening,” said the former prison director. Criminal law experts suggest that Maxwell has fulfilled its task and is now benefit from it.
