Media companies ask for Trump divorce records

The New York Times Co. and Gannett Co. have requested that the New York Supreme Court unseal records from Donald Trump’s divorce from his first wife, Ivana Trump, according to USA Today.

The couple was granted a divorce because of “cruel and inhuman treatment,” though they later reached a settlement.

In their filing, the two media companies said that the records of the divorce "have become directly relevant to the issues being debated in the hotly contested presidential campaign.”

"It would be deeply incongruous to American democracy to bar the public from seeing the official court records pertaining directly to the credibility and character of a person they must soon decide whether to elect as their president," they wrote.

6. Ivana testified under oath that Trump raped her.

He flew in a fit of rage over a baldness procedure that left him in pain, so he took it out on Ivana, yanking on her hair so she felt the pain--and forcing himself on her.

The details surrounding the alleged rape are bizarrely novelistic even by Trumpian standards. According to Ivana, Trump was driven to freakish rage by a failed anti-baldness surgery - a so-called 'scalp reduction'. But the actions are very clear cut. According to her deposition, Trump flew into a rage, attacked her, held her down and began pulling hair out of her head to mimic his pain and then forcibly penetrated her.

5. They should go after the divorce papers for the second marriage too.

Something's up when the marriage isn't even 5 years before filing papers.
