Excellent approach—and agree it would have made this a non issue—especially with a detailed DOJ report documenting support for the claim and recommending indictments against those who created the fraudulent documents.

"an odd 'typewritten' note, both supposedly penned by Trump"

- Podesta & Blumenthal, Publishers

No, all his so called supporters had to do was believe his administration from the start and not have spun this up into something the Democrats can use. Blame yourselves not Trump or his administration. I mean the man has been through hell and back and deserve the benefit.

[Dr. Franklin]

I seriously doubt that Trump has ever used a type writer in his entire life or would even know how to use one. Real men did not use type writers especially billionaires like Trump

Young men in a college prep program in the early 1960's learned typing as a skill usually in freshman year. Did the New York Military College, Trump's high school, require typing class of its Class of '64?

And at the time the note was supposedly typed, type writer machines were in the scrap yards or collecting dust on the back shelves of thrift stores.

By 2003, anyone who was anyone printed things from computer printers, laser printers being the most cost effective solution. This reeks of being a fraud, and not just because of the typewriter issue. Trump has never been known to draw pictures, or write bawdy letters to people. Trump considered running for the Reform Party nomination in 2000. He clearly had political ambitions in 2003. Trump is a master of polishing his image and PR. He did get caught on a hidden mike saying something inappropriate to Billy Bush, which was done to embarrass him IMHO, BUT he would never put anything like that on paper. He's just too smart to have done that.

So he used it once in a book around 2004…didn’t use it for 11 years….then hasn’t used it again for another 9 years…Riiggght. You do know the lead writer of WSJ article is tied to Mary Jacoby right?

The following scenario seems plausible: Twenty years ago Ghislaine Maxwell was rounding up cards for Epstein’s 50th birthday. If Trump dragged his feet, she might have created the card and either bugged Trump into signing it, or signed it for him. Your comment about needing to see all the cards (and even how they were bound) is dead on. The motive could have been as simple as wanting a good showing to please Epstein — or as cynical as helping Epstein create the appearance of connections with wealthy people to impress/entice others into his circle.

[Dr. Sivana]

but I doubt it anyone put together a faked book 20 years ago to trap Trump today.

All you need is a 20 year old blank leather book and a 20 year old pen and a decent “artist” to make a brand new phony. And YES, people would go to the effort because the stakes are high. Remember the Hitler diaries?

[Governor Dinwiddie]

It is laughable that a secular hedonist society, which thrives on smut in every form of media, finds a bawdy birthday card "shocking". LOLZ.

Go to the greeting card section of any drugstore, and you will find it loaded with smutty greeting cards.

Another reason why DJT MUST release all files ASAP. Until he does and in that release points out all the legit holes (e.g., some judge who has sealed records ) where someone else can go get info; the DNC will leak crappola like this forever.

Release or the midtems will be a bloodbath.

They call real things like laptops, fake, and fake things like this, real.
Woe unto those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

[redfreedom]

You got to be kidding me. No one would create false documents, books or dossiers to smear a sitting President. This is only done in third world banana republics.

“”“We emphasize that the presence of P. Manafort’s name in the list does not mean that he actually got the money.” “”

And yet he still was charged and went to prison. And for mortgage fraud, as well. My, my... ain’t it funny how Republicans always get jail time while Democrats (Leticia James, Adam Schiff) always seem to skate free as birds. Vultures, that is.

“Paul Manafort prison sentence

Paul Manafort’s prison sentence has been a significant aspect of his legal troubles. After being sentenced to 47 months in federal prison for tax and bank fraud, he received an additional 43 months for conspiracy charges. This brings his total sentence to 7.5 years in prison. Manafort’s legal issues continue as he faces charges in New York related to residential mortgage fraud. His legal troubles have been a topic of public interest, reflecting the lengths to which he attempted to conceal his illegal activities.”

Nonsense. Trump himself is already changing the narrative on this. Your call for blind faith in the "dear leader" not only smacks of North Korea, it's completely out-of-character with his MAGA base, and entirely impossible acheive anyway.

Let's deal with reality instead.

Used it in a book and also on video. Having said that, do I think this letter is real? I don’t really know and I don’t give it much weight.

[Lod881019]

2015 was the last time he used it right around the time they where creating the fake Russian dossier with the same group of actors no coincidence at all

[unlearner]

The card from President Trump is 100% real. It was found sitting on a fireplace mantle on Lolita Island, right where President Clinton posed in a dress for his portrait. The FBI confiscated it just a few weeks after Epstein died because they forgot to gather evidence before charging him. And it just slipped everyone’s mind until now that they had found this personal note from the sitting president.

And NYC homeless people have come forward to share their eyewitness testimony that they saw similar artwork in Trump’s limo when he used to pull over to beat them up. But they wish to remain anonymous.

Anyone who says otherwise is spreading Russian disinformation and colluding with this convicted criminal in the White House.
