Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) said Tuesday that President Trump “being clueless” about the prison transfer of Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell is “on brand” for the president.
“When it came to what the president told me today, that he was not personally aware of the Ghislaine Maxwell prison transfer, do you believe that?” CNN’s Kaitlan Collins asked on “The Source.”
“I don't think that there's a lot that the president is personally aware of. So, him being clueless is on brand,” Crockett responded.
“But in this particular set of circumstances where he is personally looking out for himself, I absolutely believe that he was knowledgeable about this,” the Texas Democrat added.
On Tuesday, Trump said that he didn’t know about Maxwell’s recent prison transfer beforehand.
“Were you aware of and did you personally approve the prison transfer for Ghislaine Maxwell that your Justice Department —” Collins asked Trump at a White House event.
“I didn’t know about it at all, nope. I read about it just like you did,” the president cut in, adding later that the transfer was “not a very uncommon thing.”
Maxwell was quietly moved from a federal prison in Florida to one in Texas, a Bureau of Prisons official told The Hill last week.
“Ghislaine Maxwell is in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) at the Federal Prison Camp (FPC) Bryan in Bryan, Texas,” BOP official Benjamin O’Cone said in an email.
In the last month, the Trump administration has been dealing with impassioned backlash over how it has handled information related to Epstein. The backlash has come from both MAGA faithful and some on the left.
The Hill has reached out to the White House for comment.
