So how soon after Trump loses the election does Melania dump him

I cannot imagine how that woman stays married to him. She was publicly humiliated at the convention when some idiot thought it was a goof to put part of Michelle Obama's 2008 convention speech into Melania's 2016 speech.

Now the whole world knows her husband is a lying, cheating scumbag who still hit on women after they got married. And yes, I know that Hillary was in the same position with Bill but they managed to work through their issues and the Clinton marriage is solid as ever. But then again the Clintons are on their first marriage. Melania is wife #3.

She likely didn't know what she was getting into. Marla Maples, not so much...

3. Oh, she knew. No way could Trump could have 'romanced' her in the way we think of that word.

4. I've never thought that Trump ever married for love.

He buys women, and there are some women who are willing to make those arrangements. No condemnation, Melania works hard to hold on to her piece of the American pie, and she does what she thinks is best for her future, but like his other wives, it seems more like a business agreement than any actual emotional attachment.

Trump is her bread and butter and she must get what she wants to stick around so long, and he must have some no questions asked clause that allows him to do whatever he wants. She won't dump him, but she knows that he will kick her to the curb the minute his fragile ego needs a younger, prettier piece of eye candy.

It's not as if she was ever in love with him to begin with. Now if his "empire" collapses and the money stops flowing, then yes she will be gone the next day.

She'll wait for media coverage to die down, but she'll be away from him long before then because he'll be impossible to live with.

10. Trump's words from 1990

Donald was determined to have a large family. “I want five children, like in my own family, because with five, then I will know that one will be guaranteed to turn out like me,” Donald told a close friend.

Melania provided him with the fifth.

She's free to go at any time now.
