MAGA claims Trump signature in Epstein birthday book is fake
MAGA influencers largely dismissed House Democrats' release of the birthday letter President Trump allegedly wrote for Jeffrey Epstein in 2003, claiming the signature is a forgery.
"Does the below from the WSJ look like this actual signature from the President? I don't think so at all. Fake," MAGA activist Charlie Kirk posted on X.
"Is this really the best they could do? Trump has the most famous signature in the world. Time to sue them into the oblivion," added podcaster Benny Johnson.
The White House echoed those arguments, with deputy chief of staff Taylor Budowich claiming vindication because the signature did not match several of Trump's recent autographs.
Vice President Vance, who had asked where the birthday letter was after the Journal's initial report in July, posted on X: "The Democrats don't care about Epstein. They don't even care about his victims."
"That's why they were silent about it for years. The only thing they care about is concocting another fake scandal like Russiagate to smear President Trump with lies," he added.
Analyses by the Journal and the New York Times found Trump's alleged signature in the birthday book — which contained only his first name, rather than the full name he uses on official documents — matched the style of several hand-written letters he penned throughout the 1990s and 2000s.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
