Trump says he feels badly for Acosta, had ‘a falling out’ with Epstein

U.S. President Donald Trump backed Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta on Tuesday but said he would look into how Acosta handled financier Jeffrey Epstein’s case during his tenure as a U.S. prosecutor in Florida. Trump said he had “a falling out” with Epstein, and that he felt badly for Acosta whose plea deal with Epstein in 2008 over sexual crimes has now drawn renewed scrutiny.
