I Saw How Epstein Literally Made People Into Pawns

Michael Wolff, the best-selling author who was tapped by Jeffrey Epstein to write his biography spills the secrets of the pedophile—and of Donald Trump. Wolff reveals the twisted reality of life inside Epstein's New York mansion, where he had a chess set made with himself as king, then spills who the other pieces were carved to represent—as well as his bizarre encounter with Epstein's last girlfriend. He and Joanna Coles also analyze exactly what Trump means by building a new ballroom at the White House and what it says about the man in the Oval Office.
