President Trump's return to the White House podium on Tuesday to discuss the coronavirus pandemic took an unusual detour when he offered warm words for Ghislaine Maxwell, who is facing federal charges of helping Jeffrey Epstein recruit, groom and sexually abuse girls.

Mr. Trump's comment about Ms. Maxwell, who was arrested in New Hampshire this month and is being held without bail in a federal jail in Brooklyn, came in response to a reporter's question about whether he expected her to go public with the names of powerful men who have been accused in lawsuits of taking part in the sex-trafficking ring that Mr. Epstein allegedly ran.

"I don't know," Mr. Trump said. "I haven't really been following it too much. I just wish her well, frankly."

"I've met her numerous times over the years, especially since I lived in Palm Beach, and I guess they lived in Palm Beach," the president continued, referring to the Florida town where his Mar-a-Lago resort is and where Mr. Epstein had a home. "But I wish her well, whatever it is."

I don't watch the briefings anymore, nor will I watch the new ones since they're useless streams of garbage, but this actually happened?!

I get that there is a legal system, and these are alleged crimes, using legal parlance, but why do you want to associate positively yourself with an alleged child trafficking pedophile?
