[avaistheone1]

respected financial pundit.

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.

The Daily Mail is a gossip rag.

[Blue Owl]

1. Oh, please...

Talk about grasping for straws...

[movonne]

56. He is someone who knows about divorces....

[Rosa Luxemburg]

77. Nice try, Donald

[BeyondGeography]

2. That's just going to generate sympathy for Prez

Thanks, dipshit.

[pnwmom]

38. Exactly. Won't hurt him one bit among people who are supporters, or open to being supporters. n/t

[progressivebydesign]

3. So what???? Even if it's true, which it's most likely not, how many of us have done the same thing?

i know I have. In fact, I'm living happily with my ex husband right now.

ETA: Just read the whole article and comments. It's plausible this is his big surprise:

he's basing on that Ed Klein book, which alleged they had papers drawn up in 2000 after some unsuccessful campaign, but worked things out and are still together, and obviously HAPPY.

The comments, even from the crazy RWNJs on there, are all "who cares???" "everyone goes through that" Even a guy who called him a socialist, said the same thing.

[99th_Monkey]

23. That was EXACTLY my first thought as well. So fucking what.

Show me one life long partnership that hasn't had to work through some
issues along the way, and I"ll show you two liars.

[avaistheone1]

29. I agree. I think the Obamas said long ago they hit a rough patch in their relationship years

ago,and they managed to work things out. Seems rather normal to me. I think that only speaks to their commitment and integrity.

I don't know why Trump has to make everything sound so sleazy. I don't think we have any kind of an issue here folks.

[movonne]

53. I wonder if he has more evidence than he did of the birth certificate...or just his

flapping gums...

[jsmirman]

66. Well, he has had two gay lovers

and, you know, he had them killed, so it fits...






Donald Trump is a dipshit of the highest order.

Donald Trump is A BIRTHER.

Like I said, as usual, this guy's got jack and shit.

[NYC Liberal]

67. This would HELP Obama imo. Millions of couples have been in the same boat.

It would just make Obama more relatable to them. And they worked through their issues, so what exactly is the bombshell here?

[abumbyanyothername]

69. I believe that marital troubles or stress

was mentioned during the PBS Biopic on the candidates.

[108vcd]

4. if true, will backfire on Trump

its pretty deep fishing

[99th_Monkey]

28. Actually it's completely petty and inconsequential

as in so fucking what?

Show me one life long partnership that hasn't had to work through some
tough issues along the way, and I"ll show you two liars.

[OKNancy]

5. This is hilarious

Who gives a shit even if true?
Republicans didn't care when Laura was about to divorce BushII for being a drunken asshole.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

6. This crap has been circulating for a while now....

Can anyone claim that during 20 years of marriage they haven't considered divorce?

[Maeve]

32. Thought of divorce? No. Murder? Yes. eom

[notadmblnd]

41. Men, you can't live with them and you can't get away with murdering them.

So what do ya do?

[GallopingGhost]

50. Put them in binders? n/t

[onecent]

72. lol that made me chuckle!!!! n/t

[Chichiri]

54. On behalf of men everywhere . . .

I apologize.

[abumbyanyothername]

73. As they say in my men's meeting

"If I'd've killed you when I first thought of it, I'd be out by now."

[Sekhmets Daughter]

78. That's too funny

I filed for divorce after 28 years of marriage when a little voice in my head whispered, "divorce him before you murder him"

[fleur-de-lisa]

7. Does Chump really think anyone will care?

IMO, this 'news' just makes the Obamas even more relatable . . . what marriages haven't experienced tough times?

[oswaldactedalone]

8. BFD

I love that Obama hates the lying sack of scum named Trump.

[IfPalinisAnswerWatsQ]

9. Dirty scumbag, but how will this hurt Obama anyway?

Obama's campaign can tie TRUMP to ROMNEY, and show clips of Romney coming to Vegas and accepting Mr. Combover's endorsement at one of his gaudy hotels.

[Democratopia]

10. I hope this ensures Gloria Allred delivers something sordid of Romney

[hamsterjill]

43. I'm wondering if Trump is going to say that Allred was one of the Obama's divorce attorney?

If so...big whup!

[Faygo Kid]

11. Good thing The Donald has never had marital trouble. Oh wait . . .

What an irredeemable jackass.

[DJ13]

12. Trump set the hair running on Monday

[libdem4life]

22. Worth 1,000 words !!

[fleur-de-lisa]

25. Photo is hilarious! - eom

[Freddie]

36. How disrespectful!

Trump isn't that thin anymore.

[appleannie1]

13. Who gives a chit you slimeball Trump.

[GCP]

14. "Claims respected financial pundit"

LMAO.

[avaistheone1]

33. "respected" The author of this DM article must have had to a couple stiff drinks before inserting

that word into the article's title.

[C_U_L8R]

15. That's despicable

The tRump has no business trumpeting clearly private matters like this. He is such an ass.

[Mutiny In Heaven]

19. Let him do it.

Short of a destructive drug habit or a predilection for domestic violence, this will seal the deal for Obama.

[mike_c]

16. LOL....

[noiretextatique]

17. how desperate

and stupid. republicons really want to keep those bush tax cuts.

[libdem4life]

18. So? Like that has never happened before.

However, my ex needed my cooperation...which he got...to legally seal our divorce papers so he could go into politics. We both had to go before a judge.

[rsweets]

20. i think it's wonderful that they worked it out...

good for them ... anyone that's been married over 20 years
knows...

[1StrongBlackMan]

21. Yep ...

That'll really affect the electorate; especially the 3 people that will believe the claim.

I'm convinced that the gop is just seeing how stupid We D. People really are.

[GentryDixon]

24. Well lets see. 30 some year ago

I filed for divorce. Yet here I am, still married to him. 43 years now.

[OldHippieChick]

26. Whose mind would this possibly change?

Mormons?

[TwilightGardener]

27. Even if it was real...who gives a shit that they almost split up?

Half the country is divorced. LOL.

[MSMITH33156]

30. LOL

that he thinks this would be a negative.

[avaistheone1]

51. It is.

Given that Donald Trump is the source of such a claim it is clearly laughable.

[powergirl]

31. And how many times was The Donald divorced?

[avaistheone1]

42. Awww who is counting?

[notadmblnd]

34. zzZ

[riverbendviewgal]

35. trump is certifiable insane

He is a ASP...Many couples argue and do think of divorce..my late husband and i had considered that. We considered. Doing it but we changed our minds...he died on me at 33 years of being married. We stayed together because the glass was more than half filled..I think our love was a lot like the Obama's. Love is not a smooth road. There are bumps.

How many times has trump been divorced?

[Democratopia]

37. Yes this can be used as to Obama's advantage

You can imagine how they could win a huge amount of sympathy:

'This was a personal matter and I am disappointed that the Republicans have tried to make political capital out of our private lives. It is true that Michelle and I went through a difficult patch in the 1990s, but in the end our love for each other meant we worked at it. We worked through our problems and I am glad of that, because every day I think I am the luckiest man alive to have Michelle as my wife and my two beautiful children.'

Michelle - holding hands with the president. "He says things like that to me every day. How can two people as in love with us go our separate ways. When we made our vows, we meant it. We believe in the institution of marriage and there was no way we were going to let each other go."

[LisaL]

39. Hmm.

How many times has Trump himself been divorced?
Actually divorced, not just thinking about it?
Enough said.

[Loki]

40. Breaking News Alert!!

Donald Trump's hair filing for divorce. Cites gross and wanton neglect, will seek support

[SunSeeker]

44. Man, what a desperate move. I take that as a sign they know they're losing. nt

[lolamio]

45. Ugh. Really? The Donald is really striving to be relevant, but yet..he just isn't. eom

[LisaL]

46. Considering the number of ex-wives he has, he really should be the last man

complaining about anyone else thinking about divorce.

[Fresh_Start]

47. man with several divorces thinks the fact that someone else considered divorce

is a cause for alarm.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

48. So, the Obama's briefly considering getting divorced is supposed to be a scandal?

if true



Many "family values" Republicans have actually gotten caught with their pants (or diapers) down with people not their spouse and we're supposed to care about Barack and Michelle briefly considering a divorce years ago?????? This the best the Donald has got???

[craigmatic]

49. so what we all go through hard times with our significant others.

[yellowcanine]

52. Who would be a "respected financial pundit" with links to Trump?

Has to be false, by definition, anyone who has anything to do with Trump is not respectable.

[shayes51]

55. And Donald has never consider divorce!

[avaistheone1]

62. No never.

I have consulted with Mitt Romney and he says so. Mitt would never lie. Just look at him.

[DemKittyNC]

57. Trump is a complete waste of a human-being. n/t

[Vidar]

61. More of a toupee animated by the black arts.

[GallopingGhost]

58. Just when I think the man cannot get any slimier...

He's kind of a strange one to be pointing fingers on this topic.

[S_E_Fudd]

59. If true...this would backfire and generate sympathy for the Obama's...

If that's it...bring it on

[Calypso0956]

65. Donald Trump is a DOUCHEBAG~

So what if they were considering divorce!!! (How many divorces has 'The Donald' had?)

Many couples do this and if this isn't the kettle calling the pot black, I don't know what is!!!

Apparently, whatever their issues were at the time, they have gotten through them/resolved them because they are together now.

Sorry Trump, this is a transparent last ditch effort to help your rich buddy-boy out.

[madrchsod]

60. i think most couples get to that point sometime in their marriage...so

who the fuck gives a shit about what ever their personal problems

[AspenRose]

63. Hold up...

Serial monogamist is trying to nail someone who *almost* got divorced?

That's pretty sad

What a joke, that's going to seriously backfire - but then again no one ever accused Trump of being very bright

[cash__whatiwant]

64. they have already talked about this...nt

[mrs_p]

68. The thought that this is an Oct surprise

is absolutely ridiculous. Who the fuck cares? And, they obviously worked it out. It is between them. That is how I felt about the whole Bill Clinton extra-marital claims as well.

NONE OF MY BUSINESS!

[GranholmFan]

70. Divorce papers...but we need to stand by Obama

I don't care if the papers allege he cheated on her and fucked a goat, he's our man, not Mitt Romney, so no matter how the media reacts, and they want Romney to win clearly, we have to double our efforts for Obama.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

71. Seriously?

They have something in common with me!

Wow, they're human, too.

[Nancy Waterman]

74. Even if it were true

so what. Says a lot about them if they worked things out. But it probably isn't true given it comes from Trump,

[LeftishBrit]

75. Trump? He's a nutty birther. And the Daily Mail is vile

Not only a sensationalist gossip rag, but viciously right-wing.

Moreover - suppose their marriage did go through a bad patch at one point? How does that discredit Obama as president?

If it comes to that, Donald Trump is on his third marriage.

[avaistheone1]

76. They sure have run a lot of crap stories about Obama.

Total fabrications.

[OldDem2012]

79. Why did you even bother posting this crap? Trashing 3...2....1....POOF!! nt.
