Looks like Melania may bring down Trump?

[Kath2]

Wouldn't that be sweet?

I will forgive her for being a gold-digger and semi-prostitute if she destroys this administration.

And she will have my thanks forever.

[Eyeball_Kid]

1. Huh? Is this a dream fart? What is she doing that gives you reason to make this kind of speculation?

[Kath2]

2. Just hoping. I'll go with anything.

10. I see Ms. Dowd found a way to blame Hillary for this mess.

[Laffy Kat]

3. I know.

Bet there would be a lot of people rooting for her. Wonder if Barron is the only thing holding her back.

[JohnnyRingo]

4. She'd have nothing to gain by shafting him now.

She can bide her time and live a separate life of luxury, then dump him when he joins the unemployment line or prison gang.

She has the youngest heir as her Trump card, so what court wouldn't grant her most of what's left over from the world's most famous cad? After the old geezer croaks, the other four can fight over scraps.

If there was a pre-nup, she'd have been gone after the GMA bus ride.

[unblock]

6. Theres no way theres not a pre-nup.

If you looked the world around to find to quintessential example of someone likely to insist on a pre-nup, it would be Donnie.

The body language is an easy read. One way or another, she has a yuuuge financial motive to stay married. Otherwise, she would have left by now.

I’d also be very surprised if he didn’t have a very detailed will. Again, he’s the kind of guy who adjust the numbers up and down every time someone flatters him or disappoints him.

[JohnnyRingo]

9. Fuck his will.

That divides up the money that's left over after a divorce. Including alimony.

[More_Cowbell]

14. I believe they already had a settlement agreement, and then he won

I don't see Melania as any kind of hero who will take Trump down. She's a gold digger who married a serial cheater, that's all.

[Dave Starsky]

21. A serial cheater with whom she cheated.

She's just as slimy as he is. She's just obviously more miserable, so people "feel" for her more.

We need to make him more miserable than she is.

[unblock]

5. It would be interesting if she divorces him, or at least obviously separates from him.

I don’t give two hoots about their personal lives, but politically, it could send a signal to republicans that it’s ok to abandon Donnie.

It could amount to nothing but a personal footnote, or it could open the floodgates.

[keithbvadu2]

7. She smiles on cue as Dotard looks at her

She smiles on cue as Dotard looks at her

and then the smile disappears.

[Shoonra]

8. I doubt Melania will do anything.

I strongly suspect that Melania is restrained by a very tight pre-nup, which probably includes a provision of no public bad-mouthing even after divorce, and nearly nothing for her if she is the one who asks for the divorce. So I don't expect to see her do more than slap his hand away. I suspect she's already got a lock on her bedroom door. And a very thorough blood test.

[Arkansas Granny]

12. I suspect you're right about the pre-nup and bad mouthing.

Ivana withdrew her charges of rape, didn't she?

[sunonmars]

13. I bet she had a subsidy not long ago

She suddenly changed her tune not long ago

[sunonmars]

11. Melania could make a mint shafting Donnie

The moneys from Tv and books alone would keep her very wealthy. I think it would be more he would arrange her an accident or use her son against her. He’d have her deported and never see Barron again. Hes a vindictive bastard.

[delisen]

28. She does have ongoing secret service protection

and can have it for life if deemed at risk.

Maybe the the Trumps can divorce and Donald can have a White House wedding.

Putin, Franklin Graham, a Hannity and a host of evangelical ministers can attend-even some international money launderers.

It will truly. be the end of the post WWII imperial presidency. We can then dump Trump. and put all these behind us and start fresh with America Phase II.

[secondwind]

15. Shes worth 50 million. How much $$ does a person need?

She can make a bundle more if she “write” a book. You only go ‘round once, and you can’t take it with you.

[Kath2]

17. She could make herself an instant hero.

Instead of a trophy wife to a misogynist bastard.

[tavernier]

16. She will do what Putin tells her to do,

and if The Blob ends up disappointing him, I’m pretty sure Vlad will set her on him like a black widow spider. And then we will finally see her real smile.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

27. The Russian Mafia is worse than the Italians.........

They go after the children first, then the mother to make a point that they are hot to be trifled with if they areally owe'd anything. . They are as ruthless as they come. They follow no rules of manufactured honor.

[PJMcK]

18. The pre-nuptial agreement will be moot

In the likely event that Trump is removed from office and criminal charges brought against him, the pre-nup would be the least of his troubles.

[Kath2]

19. Very true.

[Tipperary]

20. Dream on.

[C_U_L8R]

22. What if she was wearing a wire?

I know, total fantasyland... but oh the things she'd pick up.

[milestogo]

23. Is she cooperating with Mueller?

[Kath2]

24. I doubt it.

But that would be so excellent!

[Sunlei]

25. She's not able to do anything for herself, trump probably kicked her out.

[Kath2]

26. Kicked out by the most hated man in the world.

[Sunlei]

32. I think the "away from daily contact with her son" is Mr Trumps current control/torture of her.

She really should divorce him while she has good access to the best legal/medical. Before Donald ruins her child.

[Kath2]

33. I agree.

The right thing to do.

[Lotusflower70]

29. Nope

She is selfish and greedy. She has to appear outraged. The hard core thirty percenters of will turn on her too.

[Kath2]

30. She is selfish and greedy.

And sold herself for money and power a long time ago.

[still_one]

31. not going to happen unless she wants to lose large amounts of money to keep quiet

[NCTraveler]

34. Neither gold-diggers or semi-prostitutes

Need your forgiveness. Sad the things being said about her that hold up the patriarchal society aspect. You have just referenced a lot of great women as being “semi-prostitutes.”

The two things you mention are offensive and completely irrelevant. That completely irrelevant part is a moment for self-reflection. The question is why was it said if irrelevant.
