• Donald Trump Jr.'s wife files for divorce

Being poisoned because my father-in-law is the (wildly disliked) president would be enough for me to bail the fuck out of a marriage. No one really knows what their 'home life' was like and if it was that bad it probably would have caught media attention before the divorce. (and also declared fake news)
Time to bail the sinking ship before you drown, I suppose.
Being a shithead is a pretty good reason to divorce someone.
She wants to divorce him while there's still money to be had.
I'm honestly surprised both Vanessa and Melania didn't abandon ship sooner really. I'm sure both of them are aware of what's been going on, though I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Trump has been emotionally abusive with Melania and forcing her compliance. That or something to do with protections of not being forced to testify against your spouse.. who knows. Either way good on Vanessa for getting out of this... or not if she's only now doing it to save her own ass. It'll be interesting to hear both of their sides of the story once this craziness is all said and done.
I gotta go with what a few other people have said: I think Melania's too comfortable with Trump's fortune and brand power to ditch him just yet, at least until the guillotine's much closer to her own neck than it is now.
Eh, Idunno about that. Way I see it, it's an unmitigated win for her. DJT Jr is fucked and she knows it. Even if their home life was perfection incarnate it'd be a good idea for her to pull the loud handle now, rather than go down with the raging dumpster inferno that is anything 'Trump'. But knowing that family, he's likely also an abusive piece of shit. We know daddy's not exactly the most gentlemanly sort, and I find it exceedingly hard to fathom Jr being any different than his daddy.
In my opinion, Melania is more likely to be considered a witness than a target of Mueller's investigation. She just doesn't impress me as having the ambition to bother assisting him in his crimes, as opposed to simply enjoying the ill-gotten gains through willful ignorance. Ivanka and Kushner, however...
I think Melania just wanted to marry a rich billionaire, not get involved in politics and shady deals. I feel bad for her and Barron who just kinda have to go along with all this shit. Same with Vanessa, really.
personally i think people are dreaming when they talk about Melania divorcing Trump. she's married to a billionaire president. news is already everywhere that she got cheated on and she's still sticking around. I don't think she cares lol. if trump ends up somehow going to prison and losing everything then yeah i bet she'll ditch him then, but otherwise I seriously doubt we're gonna be seeing a presidential divorce anytime soon.
I do think if it were going to happen, it would have happened by now. Her response has essentially just been to completely drop the pretense of a loving marriage. They rarely appear together anymore, spend most nights sleeping away
I have a feeling in the future people like Barron and Tiffany will drop their second names when all this is over, no matter what happens.
Barron is who I feel sorry for in all of this. Melania knew what she was signing up for. Don Jr. and Eric and Jared knew what they were doing and, in some cases, actively joined in. Everyone in the Trump family has greedy self-interest to blame for their involvement in the presidency in some way, except Barron. The poor kid not only has the burden of growing up with the walking gong show that is his senior citizen father and the shit he'd be pulling on a regular basis, he's now just entering adolescence when his President father is taking a porn star to federal court to keep her from talking about their affair immediately after Barron's birth. Being born to the Trump family always meant he was going to grow screwed up from being raised around so much money and naked greed, but his dad being elected President isn't making anything better. He's probably never going to be poor or lacking everything he needs for a comfortable life, but I bet he'd trade all his wealth away for a sane family and a normal father.
