In a drawing included in the book given to Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday in 2003, the late wealthy pedophile is depicted handing balloons to three little girls in 1983. The drawing then shows Epstein reclined on the beach being massaged by figures who are, presumably, those same girls in 2003. “What a great country!” it says.
That sums up the common theme that friends of Epstein, who died in federal custody in 2019 while awaiting trial for trafficking underage girls, shared for his 50th birthday. The book includes some letters one would characterize as normal birthday wishes, including from former President Bill Clinton. But many, if not most, of the birthday wishes submitted to Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted Epstein accomplice and former girlfriend, for the book shared pictures, stories and remembrances of a lewd and sexual nature. Together, they paint a picture of a man obsessed with sexual conquests, which his friends and acquaintances were all too familiar with.
That included President Donald Trump, who submitted a letter with a drawing of a disembodied female torso with his signature below where the crotch would be and a cryptic text discussing secrets and enigmas. The letter from Trump, which he denies creating, is not at all out of place in the birthday book filled with tales of sexual exploits, nude pictures, drawings of women’s breasts and pictures of women in bikinis or underwear, including Epstein’s “assistants.”
