Reasoning
Trump's public statement explicitly characterizes Epstein's preference for women 'on the younger side,' which is a direct trafficking indicator under grooming/procurement patterns and age-related sexual preference language. The confidence is high because this is an unambiguous, attributed statement in published media recognizing an age-preference pattern, creating documented evidence of public awareness of potentially exploitative preferences.
