I have a feeling someone is saving a divorce when a loss is confirmed.

[–] sxan@midwest.social 21 points 1 month ago (8 children)

Naw. Here's my completely uninformed theory:

Melania is Trump's second wife, and he's exactly the kind of douchebag who'd have an iron-clad pre-nup. I think she's staying with him because (a) he probably doesn't touch her anymore, and spends his little-hands time with other women, (b) he's still a source of income for her, and (c) she gets nothing, or a pittance, if she divorces him. It may be that if he divorces her, she gets a payout, which would explain why he hasn't moved on to wife #3, but he's got the cake and is eating it, too; the real conundrum is why she hasn't left him yet. My money's on a pre-nup.

Melania is wife #3. Ivana was first (Mom of Jr, Eric, and Ivanka), then Marla Maples (Mom of Tiffany), then Melania (Mom of Barron).

Oh, thanks for the correction. I've never heard of Marla. Were they actually wed, or is she just a baby momma?

Yeah, of she's #3, there's definitely a pre-nup involved.
