Media Companies Sue to Get Trump Divorce Records - cause they're 'directly relevant' to the campaign
Newser ^ | August 12, 2016 | Linda Hervieux

Two media companies have asked a judge to make public Donald Trump’s 1990 divorce records, contending they're "directly relevant" to the presidential campaign, USA Today reports. After 14 years of marriage, Ivana Trump cited "cruel and inhuman treatment" when filing for divorce. Though Donald Trump's lawyer at the time told the New York Times the cruelty stemmed from his public appearances with Marla Maples, news of a divorce deposition in which Ivana alleged she had been sexually assaulted by her husband surfaced a few years later and again bubbled up during the campaign. The New York Times Co. and Gannett Co. on Thursday asked a New York judge to unseal the records.

The media companies made the case that doing so would "resolve [that] ongoing campaign controversy" and provide info to voters about the GOP candidate's character.

... this is because the Trumpster's divorce is a lot more newsworthy than those minor Democrat missteps ... like corruption, bribery, electioneering, espionage, treason and murder!

Just like Jack and Jeri’s divorce was incredibly important in Illinois politics.

Getting Trump’s divorce records versus the eons of corruption connected to Hitlary is like comparing a shop lifting to someone stealing all the gold in Fort Knox.

Meanwhile with nary a whisper, Seth Rich’ girlfriend may have spilled the beans:

Seth Rich, the DNC staffer who was fatally shot on July 10, was investigating several cases of election fraud and >voter suppression and was set to testify in the case of Hillary Clinton’s email investigation.. I believe he gave >someone the material in case something “happened” to him... and he gave them keys he left to access ALL the >DNC database...and a LOT more, read on !!!... Salvation Rose

Ah HA Goodman looks like they ARE putting the pieces together.... And NO it WASN’T “the Russians” .... it was >Seth who was no dummy... he left a “package” ... just in case he didn’t come home walking from his girlfriends >house... but you know what’s funny?? ...no one in the media has interviewed or talked to this girl friend ( >Claudia Kash? ), total blackout from the media that I can see but wouldn’t you think that she would have some >idea maybe of what her boyfriend was doing investigating the voter database he was in charge of?? what do you >think about what happened...???

I have the information of why that Seth was killed I’ll send it over to you here it is:

From Claudia Kash: I know why Seth Rich had to die. There were 2 sets of polling places this primary season — one set for most of the voters, who went on state >websites to find their polling locations — a second set for Hillary Clinton supporters who looked on Hillary >Clinton’s website to find their polling location. The Secretary of State for each state had one set of locations on >the record; the other set of locations, the ones listed on Hillary’s website, were not on the state record. I know this because I looked on her website to find where a friend should vote — then double-checked the state >website, which showed a different address. I thought there must be a mistake — I kept checking, right up to >election day. But until they killed Seth Rich, I couldn’t figure out why there would be two different polling >places. This is how I think the scam worked: While most voters look up their location on their state website, voters who >were signed up as Hillary Clinton supporters would be directed to her site to find their polling place. It was set >up the same as any other DNC polling place — with DNC volunteers, regular voting machines, etc. — and a >duplicate voter roster, the same as the roster at the other polling place. Voters would be checked off on the >roster, same as at the other polling place... and after the polls closed, the DNC supervisor would pick up the >roster and the ballots.

The supervisor would then pick up the roster at the legitimate polling place and the ballots there. He(or she) >would then replace a number of Bernie Sanders ballots with an equal number of the ballots from the Hillary >Clinton voting location. Then the duplicate roster from the HRC would be shredded and thrown away, along >with all the Bernie Sanders ballots that had been replaced. That way the number of people who voted (on the >remaining roster) still matches the number of ballots. This is why so many states reported a “lower than expected voter turnout”. Seth Rich, who was responsible for the app that helped voters find their polling places, did not realize that >there were two sets of polling places until he himself went to vote. He lived in Washington DC, which voted at >the end of the primary season, a week after Clinton had already been declared the winner. I believe he discovered it then, and had started asking questions about why the polling places on Hillary’s >website didn’t match the ones on the DC website.

But even if he didn’t say a word to anybody, it would have been dangerous to let him live. He would have >figured it out sooner or later — and he would have reported it when he did.

This is what Obama did to Jack Ryan in Illinois. This is how Obama won his US Senate seat. He got a ‘friendly’ lawyer to unseal Jack Ryan’s sealed divorce records. Ryan’s wife, the actress Jeri Ryan, had testified that he had tried to persuade her to go to a club to watch other people having sex. After the records were unsealed and made public, Jeri Ryan was asked if the allegations were true, and she said ‘you say a lot of things when you are trying to get custody of your children’. The Republicans in Illinois forced Ryan to drop out of the race because of this info and the rest of the story is our sad, destructive history since then. This is sleazy, but SOP for Democrats. And I will bet that they can find a ‘friendly’ judge to open those records. How low many in this country have sunk to help the Democrats gain/retain power.

Funny.

We cannot see Hillary’s State Department emails. She deleted them.

We cannot see the State Department emails she claims to have turned over. They are classified. By the State Department.

We cannot read Hillary’s Rose Law firm billing records. She his those up in the White House bedrooms.

We cannot see Oboma’s transcripts from high school, from his first college, from his second college, from his graduate school and law courses. He has THOSE locked up. By court order.

We cannot see Oboma’s health records, tax returns, nor the papers that removed his Illinois state law license. He has those locked up by court order.

We cannot see Oboma’s applications to college, to law school, to Illinois for a law license. They are sealed. by court order.

WE HAVE seen the private divorce records of Oboma’s OPPONENTS that were sealed by court order. They were released three times.

Is any of that worse than Hillary staying married to a serial sex offending husband? How many women outside of their marriage did he rape and or assault?

Oh... and then there’s Hillary getting such joy out of getting a child rapist off.

Hey media companies, how about suing to see Hillary’s health records. Those are more relevant to the election.

Let’s not forget the numerous allegations regarding the rapist in chief, William Jefferson Clinton, either.

Getting court sealed records from his opponent’s divorce made public is what gave Obama his senate seat. Litterally. It didn’t “help” him win. It is WHY he won.

Just sayin’.

I have a feeling that both Ivana and Marla would have no problem making positive statements about Donald. As for Ivana, I believe she was dealing with substance abuse issues, and Trump was trying to help her. She wanted to party all the time; he didn’t. Don’t know much about MM, though.
