When she sees he’s a pariah in those social circles she’s prostituted herself to be in she’ll drop his ass. Because not being associated with him will be more acceptable to high society.

If she sees dollar signs in doing it she’ll maybe even write a book. An “unofficial” one of course.

so called president. She would gain so much more I would think, by doing so. But then again, I am not her, I don't know what rump threatened her with / or cajoled her with, especially since it's reported that rump is broke. Anything she does now, by continuing to stay somewhat in rump's orbit (as a wife and the mother of his child Barron), simply adds to the toxic air hanging around her, and does further harm to her future (and Barron's I would think).

His only purpose in doing so would be to gain leverage on Malaria to make her back down in her demands, but there's no way Chump has any interest in being a single father with custody.

Trump has never given him the time of day and wanted nothing to do with raising him or taking care of him. Plus, I think Trump is jealous of him. And I can't prove it, but knowing what a sadistic pig Trump is, I am sure he has been emotionally and verbally abusive toward him, if not worse.

I think Barron probably wants out as bad as Melania does.

Does Barron? Can't younger children decide who they want to be with? I mean he's already 12. How much longer would he have to wait. I should think he is old enough to decide now.

Once he's 18 he's independent and can be on his own. At that point, there is no legal reason for him to choose.

have to be in his revolting presence, I would think she would get away from him as quickly as possible. I believe she still has Slovenian citizenship and if so, she can live in any other EU country - far away from him. In peace. With her son and her parents.

She could score a book deal and do quite well capitalizing on her fame as the first lady and ex-wife of Donald Trump. Ivana made a living off of it. I can't stand the woman, but I would not wish my worst enemy the fate of having to spend the rest of their life with that creepy, disgusting pig.

when the light turns green at an intersection and the guy behind you starts blaring his horn.

I now think that minuscule interval will be beaten as shortest by Melania's divorce filing.
