During his trip to England, Donald Trump was asked about accusations against Prince Andrew related to his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The president resorted to a response he’s used numerous times before. The Guardian writes:
The US president was asked during an event at the US ambassador’s residence in London on Tuesday about the Queen’s son having stepped down from royal duties after his disastrous BBC interview about the allegations. “I don’t know Prince Andrew, but that’s a tough story, it’s a very tough story,” he answered.
Jimmy Kimmel (watch above) took note of Trump saying he doesn’t know the Prince by showing several pictures that show the men together saying:
“Except when they were with Melania, in deep prayer. but definitely not knowing each other, and here not knowing each other at a party in Mar-a-Lago. They have taken photos together more than most cousins. does he think we don’t have google? No one has never met more people than Donald Trump.”

It’s hard to deny their relationship when they just dined together six months ago. The Washington Post writes:
According to a tweet sent from Andrew’s official Twitter account (the prince is also known as the Duke of York) on the morning of June 4, Trump was welcomed by the prince and then-Prime Minister Theresa May ahead of a breakfast meeting at St. James’s Palace for British and U.S. business leaders.
