JOKE I thought Putin told her to poison him and come home immediately.

I wouldn’t be surprised if she dumps him once he’s out of office. I’m also betting he’s broke and everything he has is fully leveraged. He is going to be on the hook for a crapton of loans that are soon coming due. All of the media coverage around the two affairs he attempted to cover up had to be very embarrassing for her. There was no doubt a prenup. With those vultures he has for kids, IF Trump has any actual assets left at all, when he drops dead she will be limited in what she gets so it may not be all that worth it to her to stay and she would still get support for Barron until he turns at least 18. Don Jr. and Ivanka for sure would fight Melania tooth and nail over anything left in the estate if he died. I don’t get the feeling that any of them are the charitable type.

To be fair, she has RBF for most everyone. The only way she’s leaving if if that prenup supplies her with the lifestyle she wants.
She’s been with him this long-it’s not for his charm or good looks.

My guess is that she's sticking around until Barron is 18. Maybe 16. He's what, 14? I wonder what's the length of marriage required in FL to guarantee a certain percentage of money. Or maybe it's residency? Honestly, I think she's hoping he drops dead so she can take everything and play the grieving widow. This was my thought also. She will not want to have to split custody. I think Trump would threaten to take Barron away from her, so she'll lay low until he is 18. But then again, who knows. I was surprised she stomached all of the Stormy Daniels talk when it was pretty darn clear when another woman can describe your man's penis... chances are that she has seen it. Ewww. I think it 100% comes down to what's in the prenup re: custody of Barron.

You cannot divide up children that way.

No, I don't think she will. As much as people want to paint her as a victim, she's really a viper and has always been fully complicit with him, his politics and how he thinks.
Before he was President she may have had a chance to move on to another old rich guy, but now I think she's a pariah and no-one else will want her, and the celebs won't be inviting her to any parties, and she won't be having lunch with Oprah, or giving out awards at any ceremony. Her only way of maintaining her lifestyle now is to stick with Trump and his delusional rich, criminal friends who will continue to fawn over her.
At some point he'll probably move on to a younger model and she'll continue to turn a blind eye until he dumps her but I think she'll hang on until that happens

You cannot divide up children that way. That's good. I was thinking he might try to pull something like 'if you leave me, you must leave the Barron.' Can he at least control where they live, schools the kid goes to, etc? I was thinking he COULD get something that says she can't take Barron back to NY, as he lives in Florida now.

I think she will stay with him until sentencing. She will "stand by her man" during any trials that come up.

I thought the whole reason it took her forever to move to the White House was that she was renegotiating their prenup.

I honestly do not care one bit about what either of them does after January 20. They just need to go away and the media needs to ignore them

I used to think so, but I feel different now. Personally, I feel like that narrative comes from people assuming she is *stuck* in a marriage she hates, and I don’t think that’s the case. She knows exactly what she was getting into and what she wants from it.
So absolutely not. They are two of a kind, and deserve reach other.

Agreed. Though I kind of thought she would live near her parents so Baron could stay at his school, but remain married for now. It's an acceptable excuse not to follow him to FL.

I think she likely wants to but I’m betting she has a pre-nup that will penalize her if she does. She’s probably hoping his age, health, and weight will take care of the problem.

I don’t care. I think it is one unhappy family group. Poor Barron NEVER smiles. He looks so unhappy when he’s trotted out. Contrast to the Obama girls who laughed, smiled and even teased their dad on camera. Sad! 😉 I think Barron may be on the spectrum. It would make me feel a little better because he truly looks miserable all the time. As for Melania? She is pure evil and deserves exactly what she got. I hope she's stuck with him.

Nah. My guess is that there is an iron-clad prenup that makes it more advantageous for her to stay in the marriage than to leave it. Although, I did read that the prenup was renegotiated at some point during the last 4 years.
I do think "her" book would sell better as his EX-wife like someone upthread mentioned.

I've always believed that on election night 2016 when he wanted to 'spend some time with his wife' before making his acceptance speech it was time spent negotiation a post-nup to ensure she stayed with him through his first term. I think she will be free after January 20 and will divorce him. Her book deal will be better as his ex-wife. I have always thought the exact same thing.

I don't think there will be a book. Trump has everyone who is in his vicinity sign an NDA. That's why all the shady crap he's done over the decades hasn't come out. He has paid people to keep quiet so he can mold his image. There's no way he'd allow a book. As miserable as she looks, I think she's perfectly fine in the marriage and will stay married. Not only is she as evil as donald, I think she is more so and that she actually wears the pants behind closed doors. I also think she hated the upkeep of being First Lady. She barely did anything. That makes me hopeful she will talk him out of any 2024 nonsense.

No I don't think she will she knows what side her bread is buttered. She's only a trophy wife anyhow so why bother.
She'll be better off when he's died I would guess than whatever her pre-nup would give her. I'm sure they lead sperate lives anyhow and that will probably continue.

I really know very little about her - my impression is though that she is as bad as he is and they will stick together. that's how I feel. I'm sure she wants to continue her life as comfortable as it is now and who knows what kind of prenup she signed.

I think she will be with him until the end, prying the last of his money from his cold dead hands when that time comes. Hopefully she disappears completely though so we never have to hear from or about her again.

I was thinking he COULD get something that says she can't take Barron back to NY, as he lives in Florida now. I doubt very much he gives a rat’s ass about any of his kids unless/until there is something they can do for him. In his mind, kids are a liability until they’re old enough to make more money for him. He has been quoted in the past as saying that raising the kids is solely the mom’s job and he had zero to do with the raising of the older ones, so I really don’t think he would want full custody of Barron either.

I voted "no" -- trump is such as awful person that I'm sure he'd fight her for Barron if she were to ask for a divorce. And for poor Barron's sake I'm going to assume that she loves him. I hope so, because I wouldn't think trump is giving the poor kid much affection. So if she did try to leave and trump won to keep Barron... well, I hope as a mother she wouldn't do that. eta: I don't think he'd fight to have Barron because he loves him. Far from it. I think he'd do it just because he's the vindictive, spiteful, petty person that he is.

I get the impression that they lead completely separate lives anyway. She may as well wait it out and inherit.

In order to inherit anything there will have to be some money left in the estate, and from what I’ve read it sounds like Trump owes a lot of people a lot of money that he has personally guaranteed. I’m pretty sure if Dumpster Don drops dead there will be a lot of creditors jostling to get in line in hopes of getting some of their money back.

I think like everyone else she pretty much despises him but she's made her bed and will continue to lie in it because it suits her. I'm a bit sick of reading that she's a victim and all the poor Melania bullshit, she's not a decent human being by anyone's standards and knew exactly what she was getting in to.

I don't really care what she does. She's as shitty as he is - maybe even worse because she doesn't suffer from the pathologies that he clearly does. I hope he's in her life for the rest of her days.
