Anonymously authored novel rumored to be about Ivana and Donald Trump

Could this be the “Primary Colors” of the Trump administration?

An anonymously authored novel, “The Kingfisher Secret,” has appeared telling the story of Czech model “Elena” who is recruited by the Russians to marry — and compromise — American businessman “Anthony Craig.”

Bookish types are speculating the tome is really about Ivana and Donald Trump.

The book’s publicist told us the author is a “respected journalist and bestselling author” who is remaining anonymous “in order to protect the author’s source.”

After much sleuthing, “Primary Colors” turned out to be written by columnist Joe Klein.

“The Kingfisher Secret” is out Oct. 16 on McClelland & Stewart.

1. Maybe this has happened more than once with trump?

It would not be surprising me if it has.

2. Ivana's exit through what was still the Iron Curtain was quite suspicious.

I remember when I was a kid, a new family came to town, a Czech family who had defected and escaped through considerable danger (sneaking across a border on foot) to West Germany and then to the US.
At the same time, Ivana "married" an Austrian and suddenly has a passport and so the authorities just like that let her emigrate? And she wasn't just some regular person, but a competitive skier, and back then, the Soviet satellite states generally resisted letting their athletes leave.

His third wife also grew up in a Soviet state. Just... interesting.

3. Trumpass is the 'Manchurian' candidate,

now president. We need a new descriptor that reflects that he he is Putin’s/Russia’s agent; how about Moscow Moron

4. Good idea, but in the DU dialect "moron" is spelled "moran" because of *this* Deplorable:
