"The letter was part of an album collected by Ghislaine Maxwell, the former Epstein associate currently in federal prison. Trump denies writing the letter."

"A 2003 birthday album for Jeffrey Epstein, the late financier and convicted sex offender, included a letter bearing Donald Trump's name, according to documents reviewed by the Wall Street Journal...The album's contents were collected by Ghislaine Maxwell, the former Epstein associate who is currently in federal prison. The letter was 'among the documents examined by Justice Department officials who investigated Epstein and Maxwell years ago, according to people who have reviewed the pages.' "

"As for the letter's contents, 'it contains several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman,' the Journal reports. 'A pair of small arcs denotes the woman’s breasts, and the future president’s signature is a squiggly 'Donald' below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.'..The letter ends with the signoff: 'Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.' "
