Trump Campaign Emails Went to Jeffrey Epstein Address After His Death, Records Show
Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign reportedly sent messages to an email address tied to Jeffrey Epstein after Epstein’s death, a development drawing renewed scrutiny into the release of the financier’s email files.
The controversy stems from a Dec. 13 IBTimes UK article that said Trump campaign emails were still being delivered to an Epstein-linked account even though Epstein died in 2019. That detail raised questions about the campaign’s contact lists and messaging practices amid the ongoing disclosure of the Epstein archive.
According to the IBTimes report, the email in question included a striking phrase in its greeting that pulled attention on social media. The outlet attributed its claims to records from the recently released Epstein files. However, major mainstream news outlets such as Reuters and Associated Press, while covering the broader release of emails that mention Trump historically, have not confirmed that the Trump campaign deliberately targeted Epstein’s email account or crafted the specific greeting. Those outlets describe references to Trump in archival messages rather than intentional campaign outreach.

This inconsistency leaves open whether the incident was a deliberate campaign action or simply an artifact of an automated mailing list that retained an Epstein-associated address.
“There’s no independent verification yet that the campaign intentionally addressed Epstein’s account,” one political analyst said, reflecting the current uncertainty.
The matter matters because it touches on how political campaigns manage contact lists, and how raw datasets can be misinterpreted when released without full context.
Legal experts and campaign officials say further clarification is likely as more of the Epstein archive is examined.
What happens next? Watchdog groups and media outlets will continue digging into the records and seek comment from the Trump campaign on the email’s origin and intent.
