A Trump Divorce?

Friday morning, update #2: A criminal attorney? For an uncontested divorce? Really? I told you this was going to be juicy. Details here.

Thursday afternoon update: It's on. Vanessa Trump has reportedly filed for divorce from the president's eldest son this afternoon. People and Talking Points Memo currently have coverage, with more undoubtedly to follow.

And if you're wondering, no, this isn't the first time a presidential offspring has had marital troubles during their father's presidency. A quick Google search revealed that George H.W. Bush's daughter Doro got divorced (and remarried) during his term, and one of Jimmy Carter's sons separated from his wife while his father was in the White House.

Original post:
No, not Donald and Melania. Whatever the truth about their marriage is, and regardless of what really happened between The Donald and the porn star, the Playboy model and who knows who else, for the moment, the POTUS and the First Lady are still together, at least publicly.

Possibly not so much for Donnie, Jr.:


This tweet was issued mid-afternoon today (Wednesday,) and as I'm writing (also mid-afternoon Wednesday) the story's not getting much coverage. (There's a lot of other stuff going on...) Will that still be the case tomorrow? Maybe, if there's really nothing to it. My guess? Yes, Donnie Jr. and his wife are probably breaking up, yes, it's going to be covered everywhere, and yes, it's going to be juicy.
