Melania isn’t the only Trump wife running for the hills
We still don’t know why Melania Trump disappeared three weeks ago, or where she’s truly located these days, or why Donald Trump and the White House feel compelled to keep feeding us increasingly absurd lies to try to cover it all up. It’s easy to deduce that, one way or the other, this is her de facto way of vacating her marriage. She’s not the only Trump wife who’s running for the hills.
Even as Melania Trump has gone into seclusion, Donald Trump Jr’s wife Vanessa Trump has outright filed for divorce. Why? Well, she filed the paperwork just as Robert Mueller was subpoenaing the financial records of the Trump Organization, so draw whatever conclusion you like. Here’s another clue: she hired a criminal defense attorney to handle the divorce. This is, rather obviously, related to the fact that Trump Jr is going to be indicted in the Trump-Russia scandal, and is on a path to prison. But there’s more.
Judith Giuliani has filed for divorce from Rudy Giuliani, without explanation, after having been married for fifteen years. When did she do it? Right around the time Rudy was deciding the he had to jump in as the new leader of Donald Trump’s legal defense team in an effort at keeping himself from going to prison in the Trump-Russia scandal.
It’s not difficult to figure out that Vanessa Trump and Judith Giuliani think their husbands are going to prison and may have their financial assets seized in the process, so they’re making a run for it while they still can. The Melania Trump story appears to be more complex, but do the math here. Just as these guys are about to go down for their roles in a treasonous scandal, their spouses suddenly want nothing to do with them anymore.
