Michael Wolff → Jeffrey Epstein
Event Description
Michael Wolff advised Jeffrey Epstein on a media strategy regarding Donald Trump's potential denial of connection to Epstein. Wolff suggested Epstein could leverage Trump's statement-if Trump denies knowing Epstein or visiting his properties, Epstein could use that for 'PR and political currency'; alternatively, if Trump wins and later expresses support for Epstein, Epstein could 'save him, generating a debt.'
Quoted Evidence
“I think you should let him hang himself If he says he hasn't been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency. You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you, or, if it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt.”

Reasoning
This event describes media strategy and political reputation management-Wolff advising Epstein on how to leverage Trump's potential statements for PR benefit. No procurement, transport, coercion, sexual services, or exploitation of individuals is referenced. This is consistent with a political operative advising on crisis communications, not trafficking facilitation.
