Donald Trump left confused after Lord Mandelson sacked over a fake book full of fake birthday messages

Donald Trump has expressed his surprise at the sacking of Peter Mandelson as a result of him appearing in a fake book, full of fake birthday messages for Jeffrey Epstein.

Mandelson has been relieved of his duties following the publication of his 10-page 50th birthday greeting to Epstein, and subsequent emails confirming his relationship with the convicted sex offender, in what White House officials are calling “a decision that in no way sets a precedent for other politicians who may or may not appear in that book”.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters, “What the UK government chooses to do is obviously up to them, but we find it very strange that they would sack anyone over a fake book full of fake messages.

“That book is already rightly tainted in the eyes of Republican voters everywhere, but if the British PM is dumb enough to think it’s real, then that’s on them. Because it’s clearly fake. 100% fake.

“Totally, totally fake.”

Meanwhile, voters in the United States have been left wondering if the sacking of a top British diplomat would add further political legitimacy to the Epstein birthday book, and put more pressure on Donald Trump over his proven relationship with the world’s most notorious sex offender.

“No,” continued Leavitt.

“I’m not sure you all realise how easy it will be for the Trump administration to pivot to ‘the rest of the book might be real, but the bit I’m in is still 100% fake’. See, I just did it right in front of your eyes.

“It’s almost as if you’ve never seen the Trump machine in action before.”
