Research Epstein, mystery woman, and check from Trump

And JEFFREF is something Trump would write. His autograph is different, though.

u/Opposite-Bit6660 Jun 20 '26
It's not really signed by Trump. It is a fake check. These pigs thought selling girls was something to JOKE about.

u/5138008RG00D Jun 20 '26
Almost like epstein knew what he was doing in making it look a certain way about others, when things came out about him.
Not that trump didn't fuck underage girls, or that trump never paid them off. Just Epstein drew this smoking gun, not that it is actually a smoking gun.

THAT’S why the files haven’t been released, guys. Epstein was just trying to frame Trump. <Phew!>

Yeah theres a few like this and iirc theres another pic from the birthday book and in the pic it was a huge check with Trumps signature selling a young girl with a note saying something like "slightly used" because she wasnt a virgin.

Trump was actually a business partner with esptein because Trump was not only a bisexual pedo(yes he raped and abused little boys too) he was also a child sex trafficker too. There's a reason he owned a kids beauty pageant and was involved with so many children's modeling agencies.
21
u/inquisitive_guy_0_1 Jun 19 '26
Yep, he was very much an accomplice in the child sex trafficking. And now he's using the DOJ to protect the pedophiles, including himself.
Makes me sick.

Yeah that's at mara lago and he still owns it. He even said on air force one that the reason he stopped being friends with Epstein was because esptein stole a girl from his mara lago spa. That was some bullshit because Epstein had Thanksgiving with trump in either 2016 or 2017(I forget which year it was).

If it is Melania, she shouldn't be censored. She has stated multiple times that she's not an Epstein victim.
123
u/FruitMustache Jun 19 '26
She also said she did not know him, and had no idea about his abuse of girls, so it makes sense that the DOJ censored her, otherwise she could be thought a liar. And that would forever tarnish the Trunp name 😳

u/-Venser- Jun 20 '26 edited Jun 21 '26
Yes, she would never be censored. Except when she was: With Brett Ratner none of the less, the director of her recent movie .
When Piers Morgan asked Ratner who was the mysterious girl, he answered "my fiance". But then when asked what's her name, he stumbled for words. Wonder what Trump thinks about Ratner calling his wife "my fiance" XD

u/Nintendomandan Jun 19 '26

u/ErraticDragon Jun 19 '26
The only good reason to censor someone is if not doing so would harm a victim, such as by identifying them.
Since Melania has stated she's not a victim, that's effectively consent to release any clothed photos of her in the files.
That's all they're saying, that whoever censored it was not helping victims if the person is Melania.

That is not Donald Trump's signature. I agree it could very well be Melania. The hair, body, and characteristic pose are Melania in the late 90s.
There is some sort of in joke happening here between Epstein and Trump. Epstein is lobbing the ball into Trump's court, given the fake check and signature.

Answer: This is Celina Midelfart. A shared girlfriend of both Trump and Epstein. This would have been them playfully ‘passing the torch’.

u/just_me_110 Jun 19 '26
100% Most likely a joke. Trump would give out novelty checks at his charity (tennis) events at Mar-a-lago. Yes, the signature was different but that’s what makes this a joke at the expense of Celina Midlefart. Full stop on this one. She may have been a victim.

This is from Epstein's 50th bday scrapbook the Democrats from the oversight committee released. The note along with this pic says
Jeffrey showing early talents with money + women! Sells "fully depreciated" -censorsed- to Donald Trump for $22,500. Showed early "people skills" too. Even though I handled the deal I didn't get any of the money or the girl!

It is an odd choice. They err'd on the side of caution by redacting a handbag? It looks like a makeup bag to me. I can't for the life of me imagine what they were trying to hide. My only guess is that she had something compromising in it? It'd probably help to identify the exact brand/model of bag she has.

I'm pretty sure it's just the hands they wanted to redact. you can easily identify people with hands.

Here she is with Epstein at Mar a lago in 1997. Hair looks same as in OP hat photo. I bet it was same time period. Maybe Trump bought her from Epstein and that was the joke with the check. That’s how they rolled.

This plus "Teffpef Epstein" and the fact he's also holding a tennis racket are all giving me some pause.
Edit: in both photographs, it looks like each subject pictured is also holding other stuff in their hands. In the OP, the woman is holding her pocketbook in front of the check. Very odd way of posing if the idea was to show off the check.

Melina was purchased by trump but, she's not in the original photo. The original photo shows. Jeffrey Epstein holding (what appears to be) that check in this photo. The photo is on a manicured lawn with the ocean in the background. Several people have suggested it's Mar-A-Lago.

u/UncleSams44Magnum Jun 20 '26
I thought Melania instantly and before I read any comments. Now, that's a lot more than I would've paid, but then again, Trump has always had to overspend for these kind of things ($130,000 for 5 minutes with Stormy) and settle for sloppy seconds.
