Who thinks the soon to be ex-wife is bailing because she knows about

[malaise]

sealed indictments?

[titaniumsalute]

1. Or she simply knows she's married to a total asshole

[Adrahil]

16. I think this more likely....

I mean, I'd love it if she bailed because she knows the jig is up. But Trump Jr. is a festering, pustulant asshole. A person can take that for only so long, even they're an asshole themselves.

[BannonsLiver]

31. He passed asshole at puberty

Junior is a full fledged sociopath.

[OneGrassRoot]

2. Or, it's a way to transfer assets before Mueller Time. :) n/t

[malaise]

3. Yep I thought about that option

[lapfog_1]

5. this! - n/t

[Wounded Bear]

6. That would be my guess, too...

It's not like Junior just turned into an asshole or something. To be that bad requires practice.

[hlthe2b]

7. This... maybe even a "sham" planned "divorce" to protect those assets.

[MFM008]

29. My thoughts EXACTLY

............

[PearliePoo2]

8. Uh...yup!

But that's risky and legally suspect if intent can be proven, so a move that's also stupid.

But, look at who we're talking about here. Don Jr., a real chip off the old (stupid) block.

[herding cats]

12. That was my first thought.

It just seems to fit all things considered.

[Achilleaze]

13. Bingo Bango Bongo!

This is just another republican "family values" sleazeball move by Dirty Donny Junior & Spousal Unit to make sure the ill-gotten gains of their republican grifting schemes stay within reach of their tiny, greazey, grasping fingers.

[TNLib]

15. From what I read this is a quick divorce uncontested

So I agree it looks that way.

[shanny]

21. That would require intelligence and awareness on the part of donnie jr, wouldn't it?

so, maybe not, or at least not on his part. maybe she just has a boatload of dirt on hubby and wants OUT, NOW. maybe she can read the handwriting on the wall even if he can't.

[sarcasmo]

22. It's always about money and I'm betting this is 90% accurate.

[BSdetect]

23. Well, I do hope that shady ploy is illegal.

[EffieBlack]

26. It may be too late for that

A court is unlikely to allow a transfer of assets of it appears that it’s being done to shield them from forfeiture in a criminal matter. That horse may already have left the barn.

[Glamrock]

30. Survey Says..........

[Zoonart]

4. Clearing out before the

asset seizure.
Those indictments cannot come too soon, Mal.

[panader0]

9. Okay, just a little while ago, those pistachios had shells.

You've been busy and it's making me hungry.

[malaise]

11. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

You win the thread

[BoneyardDem]

10. Like father, like son...she doesn't want to deal with it.

[world wide wally]

14. Hillary lied!

When she was asked to say something good about Trump during a debate, she said that he raised good kids. That was a downright "alternative fact"

[malaise]

17. ROFL

I disagreed with her then

[mythology]

20. There's still hope for Barron

And Tiffany stays out of the spotlight.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

18. She wouldn't know any more about sealed indictments than we do.

The fact that they're sealed means the defendant won't know about them either. It's more likely that she's leaving him because he's an obnoxious, entitled dick .

[marylandblue]

19. +1 And he probably got worse since the election

[aikoaiko]

24. I think its because her lawyers told her she had peak leverage right now.

Spousal privilege protects Jr in court but she can still talk about what she knows.

[redstatebluegirl]

25. I think she wants her money before it is gone.

My bet is she takes a large initial settlement plus child support of course, but I bet her attorney is making sure he pays up front just in case he ends up poor (we can only hope).

[poboy2]

28. She could be in on it. Securing money with divorce as cover to shield fortunes from seizure. -nt

[riversedge]

27. I have read several places, she has never liked the public spotlight, Recall she got white powder

about a month ago. Has 5 young kids. Perhaps she wants her and kids to be safe. Just speculating like all of us are.

[mia]

32. She's preparing to spill the pistachios. n/t

[malaise]

34. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Good one

[B2G]

33. How would she know? nt
