US President Donald Trump has firmly denied reports suggesting he sent a birthday card to Jeffrey Epstein in celebration of the alleged sex offender’s 50th birthday back in 2003. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Trump stated emphatically that he has “never written a picture in his life” and does not engage in drawing images of women, as it is not his “language.”
“This is not me. This is a fake thing. It’s a fake Wall Street Journal story. I never wrote a picture in my life. I don’t draw pictures of women. It’s not my language. It’s not my words,” Trump insisted during the interview conducted on Tuesday.
Legal Threats Over Allegations
During his conversation with the Wall Street Journal, Trump threatened to sue the publication over the report pertaining to the alleged birthday gift to Epstein. “I’m gonna sue The Wall Street Journal just like I sued everyone else,” he stated.
The Reported Birthday Gift
According to the Wall Street Journal, Ghislaine Maxwell prepared a special birthday album for Epstein, which included letters from various friends and family members, allegedly including one from Trump. The letter purportedly bore several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, drawn in heavy marker. The letter reportedly concluded with, “Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret,” and was signed simply as “Donald.”
Elon Musk Weighs In
Elon Musk, who recently had a public disagreement with Trump, reacted to the claims about the letter on his social media platform X, describing it as sounding “bogus.” He tweeted, “Yeah, the letter sounds bogus.”
As this story continues to unfold, the implications of these allegations remain a topic of significant interest, adding another layer to the ongoing discourse surrounding Trump’s past associations.
