Lawrence O'Donnell just ran down Ivana tRump's immigration...

[Totally Tunsie]

Seems she married in Czechoslovakia and received immigration papers to Canada. Once in Canada, she divorced sham husband. As she was an avid skier, she would cross over the Canada/US border to ski at Jay Peak, where she found the ski conditions there much better than she was accustomed to in Europe. She subsequently became a ski instructor at Jay Peak, working illegally since she didn't have proper authorization. After a couple of years, she then moved from
Montreal to NYC, where she met tRump.

In November 1971, 22-year old Zelníčková married 25-year-old Austrian real estate agent Alfred Winklmayr to enable her to leave Communist Czechoslovakia. Ivana received her Austrian passport in March 1972 and left for Canada in September 1972.[5] The ‘cold war’ marriage was not consummated and formally dissolved after a mandatory cooling-off period in August 1973.[6][clarification needed] In Canada she lived with her boyfriend whom she had been dating since 1967, George Syrovatka, who owned a ski boutique there. For the following two years, she lived in Montreal, improved her English by taking night courses at McGill University, and worked as a model for some of Canada's top fur companies. Zelníčková then left Syrovatka, and moved to New York City to promote the 1976 Summer Olympics that were being hosted in Montreal.

Donald Trump and Ivana, 1985
In 1976, Zelníčková met Donald Trump in New York City. On April 7, 1977, they married in a lavish wedding officiated by Norman Vincent Peale.[7]

Nine months minus one week after the wedding to DJT (12/31/77), Ivana gave birth to Donald Jr...her first anchor baby. Thus, cementing her as just the type of immigrant that Donny Sr. now abhors.

1. Melania also has a dubious immigration story.

It seems Trump twice married Eastern European women who came to America under suspect circumstances.

Now he hates immigrants. There is something Freudian going on.

and nobody from Sweden wants to come here.

6. When she published her "tell-all" 'For Love Alone', there was a joke in Eastern Europe:

A woman walks into a bookstore in, say, Prague, and asks the clerk if they have any good reads come in recently.

"Why yes!" the clerk says. "We just got Ivana Trump's biography For Love Alone, in which she shares how she left Czechoslovakia and eventually married a New York real estate magnate."

"Oh," the customer says. "I wasn't looking for a self-help book."

8. I watched that tonight and I agree it was well done - so I found and posted the video:

Ivanka Trump said she "vehemently" opposed Donald Trump's family separation policy but added that her own mother "came here legally." But what if that isn't totally true? Lawrence explains the questions raised over Ivanka Trump's mother's immigration history.

9. When the Trumps drop an anchor baby they drop their best and it's still Don Jr.
