Donald Trump is to claim that he has unearthed divorce papers of Michelle Obama and the President, according to a respected financial pundit with links to the tycoon.
It is alleged that the eccentric real estate mogul will claim that the documents show the First Lady and the President were at one point in their two decades of marriage seriously considering splitting up.
Trump set the hare running on Monday by claiming that he was set to make an announcement on Wednesday that would be bordering on gigantic' and that it would possibly change the Presidential race

(21,198 posts)Anyone with half a brain (ok maybe not those at Fox) can see the Obama's love and respect one another. It's just like the rumors that George and Laura were going to divorce after he left the white house. They are still together.

(14,040 posts)and I think at one time Shrub did too and, oh, wait, Ronald Reagan divorced his first wife and Gingrich has had a bazillion wives.
I don't think it would be smart for this guy to bring marriage issues into the election with RMoney being a Mormon and all.

(2,117 posts)How this would have any effect on anything beats me. If anything, it reminds people that the Obamas aren't fairytale characters, they're real people with real problems.

(5,813 posts)hit rough patches in their relationship. I have been married to the same person for nearly 44 years. We had difficulties early in our marriage....mainly due to finances. Being poor has its drawbacks and often takes a huge toll on marriages. Later, we struggled as we both changed and grew into more mature human beings. We stuck it out and now have a pretty decent relationship, if not perfect. I would be shocked to learn that Barack and Michelle Obama have not had any time in their married life when they questioned whether they would stay together. Clearly, they seem to have worked those differences out and the way they look at one another shows a couple who love and respect each other.
Bombshell? I doubt it. Trump needs to go back to the drawing board. Surely he has more imagination than THIS.

(41,991 posts)I can't think of a soul who would give a damn and I know a lot of souls. Trump seems to suffer from something very like premature ejaculation of the brain. "Hey! I have an idea!" and no brakes or filters whatsoever.
PT Barnum was at least entertaining.

(35,701 posts)But the likability of the Obamas would probably go up, not down. They saved their marriage and are making it work. How many married couples would identify with that in a positive way? Millions.

ZOMG11!!!11 Seriesly1!
How is this going to work, POTUS and FLOTUS seem to be happily married for the last 4 years, at least. I guess they worked it out like married couples with children are prone to do.
Fuck Donald PieceofShit Trump!

2. If it's true, it should make the pro-family people happy. They were able to set aside their differences and make their marriage work rather than divorcing.

(17,412 posts)And I mean that sincerely. As was pointed out several times above, this can only produce a net gain for Obama in the long run.
Edit: and some of his previous statements against people on our side have been so over-the-top, I've been thinking he was intentionally doing it to get us riled up and motivated.

(1,014 posts)Big fucking fat hairy deal. Shut up, Donald.
In the 90's they did have some tense times after he lost to Bobby Rush. She wanted him to get out of politics. Rather they filed papers then or not doesn't really matter. They are together now and in love, that's very obvious.

(20,136 posts)Oops. Good going, Don. Any Republican who is dumb enough to touch this will open up a huge can of worms. But I doubt even most Republicans are that stupid.
I see this, if true, as a positive for Obama. The takeaway will be that they almost divorced but worked through it and saved their marriage. Many married couples in America will see this and say, "Yeah, we've been there too."

(1,047 posts)Given the fact that Trumpet has had MANY divorces. This is irrelevant. Couples go through this kind of thing often and then reconcile. Besides, how long ago wa this anyway? They seem stronger than ever now.
