Trump said he never wrote a picture.' This woman solicited two drawings from him

After the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday night on a 2003 letter to Jeffrey Epstein that included Donald Trump's name and an outline of a naked woman, the president's denial was comprehensive.

"I never wrote a picture in my life. I don't draw pictures of women," he told the Journal. "It's not my language. It's not my words."

"I don't draw pictures," he later wrote on Truth Social.

However, a charity director told CNN that in 2004 Trump sent her two signed drawings for an Ohio charity auction. And news reports suggest other drawings of his have sold for thousands of dollars.

A former Columbo family mobster who was incarcerated in the same cell Epstein died in said there's no way to hang yourself in that cell. Nothing to tie a noose to. And that guards walked by every few minutes.

Ex-Mobster Who Shared Cell with Jeffrey Epstein Claims it's Almost Impossible' the Billionaire Took His Own Life

While talking to NewsNation, Franzese claimed that it was "almost impossible" that the sex offender took his own life. The mobster who once shared a jail cell with Epstein went on to explain how it'd be impossible to do given the structure of the cell.

"There's no way you are able to commit suicide. There's just no way. There's no way to hang yourself. There's nothing from the ceiling, there's nothing from the bed," Franzese explained. He noted how a person would have to be a "midget" or "work really hard to try to hang yourself." He concluded while pointing out that it would have been impossible for the billionaire to take his own life.

Lots of different sources have reported Franzese's comments.

Epstein files are so bad for Trump he's calling MAGA base 'weaklings.' Uh-oh. usatoday.com

We don't know what's in the Jeffrey Epstein files, but we now know it's so bad for President Donald Trump that he'll turn on his rabidly loyal MAGA base, mocking them as "stupid" and "weaklings," to keep it hidden.

As a longtime chronicler of Trump and his MAGA movement, allow me to say this: Wow. Whatever is in those Epstein files must be devastating for the president, because nurturing his base so he can continue separating them from their money has always been his primary objective, and labeling them foolish weaklings risks a schism.

...

Right-wing weirdo Laura Loomer is one of the MAGA activists closest to Trump, and she told Politico this July 16: "Obviously, this is not a complete hoax given the fact that Ghislaine Maxwell is currently serving 20 years in prison in Florida for her crimes and activities with Jeffrey Epstein, who we know is a convicted sexual predator. This is why I said, and I'll reiterate it again, the best thing that the president can do is appoint a special counsel to handle the Epstein files investigation."

I hate it when MAGA-mom and MAGA-dad fight. I hate it even more when I have to say this: Loomer is right.

One problem with Trump trying to brush Epstein off as a hoax is that Epstein associate Maxwell was, to quote a 2022 Justice Department press release, sentenced to "240 months in prison for her role in a scheme to sexual exploit and abuse multiple minor girls with Jeffrey Epstein over the course of a decade."
