Trump and Jeffrey Epstein seem to discuss 'hot' women in 1992 video discovered by NBC


NBC has resurfaced an old tape of President Trump laughing and seeming to discuss women with Jeffrey Epstein, the financier who would later be convicted on state prostitution charges and register as a sex offender, at a party in 1992.
Footage that aired on MSNBC on Wednesday, which Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski said was found in the NBC archives after being shot in November 1992 for a talk show appearance, shows Trump partying at Mar-a-Lago with Epstein. Trump seems to point a woman out to Epstein and say, "she's hot," although it's difficult to hear due to the loud music. Epstein also laughs after Trump says something to him that isn't audible. The footage also shows Trump grabbing a woman at the party.
Epstein was recently arrested on sex trafficking charges as prosecutors say he abused dozens of underage girls. The financier has pleaded not guilty to new charges.
