Alleged signatures of Donald Trump in Jeffrey Epstein's birthday book have sparked controversy. The signatures appear on a risqué drawing and a novelty check. Trump denies signing them, calling the matter a 'dead issue'. House Democrats released the book, prompting debate over authenticity and Trump's past relationship with Epstein. Handwriting experts find definitive proof difficult, while partisan views dominate the discussion. The incident highlights the political and symbolic weight of a presidential signature, and fuels ongoing calls for the release of Epstein-related files.
