Because now we see that the fake drawings were so far off base... now we see his reality.
That what he drew, is a picture of a prepubescent female body.
It's as revealing as it is disgusting. He thought the whole thing was a joke among friends, all of his rich narcissistic psychopath friends.
It has never been a picture of a woman or a story about just women. These crimes are about children, too.

That makes the drawing exponentially worse.
No head, no limbs... no life .
Did they ever dig up Epstein island? How many bodies are buried there?
Does any one else wonder why TSF has an obsession with Hannibal Lecter?
If he had not been born rich, he would be dead or in jail and the authorities would be digging up his basement looking for bodies.

(12,078 posts)Yeah, when I saw that drawing, I thought that's not a drawing of a woman's body. It's a child's body. It's a drawing of something to be used.

(29,832 posts)Objectification. Which in any form should be at the very least objectionable.
In his case, deeply disturbing. In his case all people are reduced to his playthings.
We're all just objects in his imagination. He's completely void of empathetic human emotions.
He plays Army with the Armed Forces and the National Guard, like they're plastic toys. It's not hard to imagine what he does/has done with those he has had direct face-to-face power over and who are less equipped to resist.
It's all part of his psychopathic sickness.
We should all be terrified.

(5,728 posts)looked "off" to me and I couldn't quantify it. Given his apparent desire to have women in his life to be seen as "well endowed," why was his drawing so unprovocative? Young girls is a fitting explanation.

(1,559 posts)From the earlier descriptions, I expected it to be more vivid -- a complete thing, hair, eyes, a smile, etc
This just gets creepier the more one looks at it.
And now that this objectification has been brought to my awareness, I have seen many such drawings in public bathroom stalls over the years. Some had complete bodies represented, but many had only the "parts of interest," so to speak. However, thinking back, all of these bathroom drawings depicted large breasts, of an idealized mature woman.
I doubt that most of these bathroom "artists" were serial killers and rapists in real life. I hope that they were just expressing their fantasies. In Trump's case, we know for certain that he was (and presumably still is) a sexual predator and convicted rapist, which makes this particular drawing so chilling. These were two guys deeply involved in sex trafficking, especially focusing on very young girls for the pleasure of very important people all over the world.
Trump has no filters. Everything he says and does is a confession.

(98 posts)drew this. "He's not an artist", and signature either fake or autopen. For pete's sake, that is not an "artistic " drawing. And the signature is exactly like other of trumps signatures, same time period. I guess those reasons are enough, though, for almost all republicans. Hard to believe these are the people controlling America.

(9,174 posts)Those things would mean the figure is pubescent. Which doesn't excuse it because that would still put the figure in early adolescence, way too young for a 19-year-old, much less a 50-year-old.

(169,942 posts)Republicans had to choose: acknowledge the letter as legitimate or insist that a Trump-signed document wasnt actually a Trump-signed document.
Thereâs an approach to reality that says a Trump-signed document isnât actually a Trump-signed document.

Itâs the same approach that says job numbers are fake. And polls are fake. And election results are fake. And science is fake. And evidence of crimes is fake. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

A copy of the book submitted to Congress (which was not reviewed by MSNBC) included a typed message, inside the outline of a womans torso, that read, in part, A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday and may every day be another wonderful secret. At the bottom of the message is a signature that appears to be Donald Trumps.
The image looks like the one the Journal described in July.
BREAKING: House Oversight Committee Dems posted this photo of what appears to be Trump's birthday note to Epstein.
— MSNBC (@msnbc.com) 2025-09-08T20:02:54.216Z
Trump previously denied the note and drawing's existence. MSNBC has not independently verified the drawing. The WH has denied the signature belongs to the president.
......White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt claimed that its very clear that Trump didnt draw the figure or sign the letter. Other White House officials pushed the same line, and true to form, several congressional Republicans soon followed, echoing the new party line.
At face value, the pushback was and is difficult to take seriously. The signature on the letter resembles other documents from that era that Trump signed.

For that matter, its difficult to imagine how the document in question couldve been fabricated in the first place. As CNNs Aaron Blake summarized, The key fact here is that this comes from Epsteins estate. In other words, for this letter to have been fake, someone would have had to plant it in Epsteins possessions a long time ago, somehow........
Theres a quote thats often attributed to political theorist Hannah Arendt: This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore. As it happens, Arendt didnt actually say this (at least not exactly), but the quote resonates because of its salience:
Trump obviously tries to get people to believe lies all the time, but nearly as often, the president and his allies try to get people to give up on the idea that facts exist. With too many Americans, these tactics are effective, which helps explain why theyve become so common.

(29,832 posts)Every time I get the opportunity, I point out how important it is to make a distinction between mis- and dis-information.
It's easy to create misinformation. We do it all the time. Inadvertently. When we're mistaken about facts. Innocently. When we get bad, misleading information. Maliciously. When we lie.
But disinformation, the insidious deliberate sharing of misinformation when you know it to be false or bad information, is propaganda designed to decieve, mislead and confuse.
This creates the atmosphere that nothing and no one can be trusted.
It is destabilizing in many ways. Deliberately.
Worst of all, it creates separation between individuals and groups of people, isolates us and causes fractures in the very fabric of society.
Thanks for sharing this. ❤️

I'm pissed at the left for sensationalizing the drawing. And stretching to get the location of the signature sensationalistic. I like to think we're better than that, but we're often not.
And no, it's much too hefty to be an outline of a young person.

(34,934 posts)I started around 9 or 10 but others start around 12 or 13. I'm confused about why you're focused on the shape of the drawing and not the substance.
Remember, we're talking about the sitting president of the United States here. He already has several accusations of sexual assault.
Do we have standards anymore or don't we?

(4,352 posts)I went back to look at it and I see no indication of what I would consider as "hefty."
I was a figure painter and I know that figure is no way hefty - I taught life drawing as well so I've seen a good number of adult body types.
The only thing I can say that may be considered is that Trump never had a sense of proportion.

(359 posts)The fascist pig knows it is a sketch of a teenager. Jeffrey knew it was a sketch of a teenager. His signature is him grabbing the teenager by her p****. The fascist pig did not want this drawing released because it depicted a teenager. The fascist pig knows that it being a teenager makes him look very very guilty.

(3,072 posts)And enigma is a an anagram for "gamine". I do not think that is an accident.
From Wikipedia:
"The gamine is a popular archetype of a slim, often boyish, elegant young woman who is described as mischievous or teasing, popularized in film and fashion from the turn of the 20th century through to the 1950s. The word gamine is a French word, the feminine form of gamin, originally meaning urchin, waif or playful, naughty child."

Dont read anything more into that sketch, other than that both he and Epstein like gazing at the female figure.

(521 posts)aint got a bit of artistic bone in his body. And people are trying to read into it his ability to sketch out a young girls form that differentiates from a generic female form? Thats reading tea-leaves level of introducing ones own preconceived notions into schlock art.
I mean, Picasso can whip out a quick sketch of an outline of a female form and we can all rightly argue whether that female form is of an 18-year old or a 28-year old. Thats because its by Picasso and he would be able to make distinguishing differences for the two ages.
To claim that Trump meant to sketch out a young girl gives that clod far too much credit for his drawing skills.
Lets just say his drawing skills are about as artistic as his dancing skills.
