I'm surprised she retracted her statements, but also the article doesn't mention this. This seems pretty detailed to be fake though. Did someone get to her family maybe?
We don't know if she actually retracted specifically anything about Trump. Just the supposed sex tapes that she claimed having in order to try to protect herself from Epstein.
Stephen Cheung may have said so but if you read his responses to pretty much any thing for Trump, you'll find his replies are on par with that of a 13 year old. He strikes me as someone who isn't so much concerned with any truth or ethics and wouldn't be above misleading people on what he 'meant'.
