Karoline Leavitt Insists Signature on Epstein Letter Is Not Trump’s — Says She Welcomes ‘Handwriting Expert Review’

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the administration would gladly welcome a “handwriting expert review” to prove President Donald Trump did not sign the birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein that is at the center of his ongoing feud with the Wall Street Journal. 

Here is what Leavitt had to say at a press briefing on Tuesday when asked about it:

“Sure, we would support that. In fact, I’ve seen many forensic analysts of signatures coming out. I believe it was The Daily Signal that published a piece who said this absolutely was not the president’s authentic signature. We have maintained that position all along. The president did not write this letter, he did not sign this letter. That’s why the president’s external legal team is aggressively pursuing legal action against the Wall Street Journal and will continue to do so.”

Leavitt was slightly mixed up in her response; the story she was referring to was actually from The Daily Wire, which reported on Tuesday “three leading AI research systems” all determined it was an “extremely low probability” that Trump signed the “bawdy” letter.

Her answer comes a day after the WSJ published a photo of the 2003 letter to the sex criminal. President Trump has said the letter — which includes a drawing of what appears to be a woman’s body — is a “fake” and that he never signed it.

“I never wrote a picture in my life. I don’t draw pictures of women,” Trump told the paper when its initial story ran in July. “It’s not my language. It’s not my words.”

The president has sued Rupert Murdoch’s paper for $10 billion over the report.
