President Donald Trump says a birthday message to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein purportedly signed by him is fake, but a series of comparisons with first-name Trump signatures show some similarities.
The House Oversight Committee on Sept. 8 released a 238-page “birthday book” assembled for now deceased Epstein’s 50th birthday in 2003.
Page 165 of the leather-bound book contains a bawdy drawing and a note, “Happy Birthday – and may every day be another wonderful secret,” with Trump’s reported signature.

Trump has denied contributing to the book. He filed a $10 billion defamation suit against the Wall Street Journal and its owners on July 18 after the Journal reported on it.
