President Donald Trump says the birthday message to disgraceful investor Jeffrey Epstein, whom he allegedly signed, is fake, but a series of comparisons with the Trump signature in the first name shows some similarities.
On September 8, the House Oversight Committee released a 238-page “Birthday Book” that was gathered for the now-deceased 50 Epsteinth Birthday in 2003.
The 165-page leather book features a signature reported by Trump, saying, “Happy birthday.

Trump has denied contributions to the book. He filed a $10 billion defamatory loss lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal and its owners on July 18, after the Journal reported.
At a briefing on September 9th, White House Press Officer Caroline Leavitt said Trump “has not written this letter. He didn’t sign the letter, which is why the president’s external legal team is actively pursuing lawsuits against the Wall Street Journal.”
Republican lawmakers are also disputing their credibility.

◾1995: A letter to members of the Palm Beach Committee.
◾1996: A letter to Rudy Giuliani, the mayor of New York at the time.
◾1997: Trump’s book “Trump: The Art of Comeback,” an inscription owned by Epstein.

Trump would agree to a forensic review of the signature to prove that it wasn’t him, Leavitt said.
“We’re going to support that. We’ve seen a lot of forensic analyses of signatures come out. I think it was a daily signal that we published work with three separate signing analysts who said this was definitely not a real signature of the President,” Leavitt said.
