Donald Trump and Epstein: The Monsters-Political Cartoon

A political cartoon by Brazilian cartoonist Quinho Ravelli.

Donald Trump, the 45th and 47th President of the United States, entered politics after a career in business and television. He was elected president in 2016 and returned to the White House in 2025.

His past association with Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender at the center of a major sex-trafficking scandal, has remained a subject of public scrutiny. The two socialized in the 1990s and early 2000s, appeared together in photographs, and flight logs show that Trump traveled on Epstein’s private jet on multiple occasions.

In a 2002 interview, Trump described Epstein positively and referred to his interest in younger women. Their relationship reportedly ended around 2004.
