Didn't Ivanna accuse him of rape after she referred him to her doctor for a scalp reduction to make his bald spot less obvious and he got botched so he blamed her for it and then did the thing? Talk about bad people in the US some more, Trumplethinskin.

E: Ivanna not Ivanka, and scalp reduction not scalp removal

The part of the book that caused the most controversy concerns Trump’s divorce from his first wife, Ivana. Hurt obtained a copy of her sworn divorce deposition, from 1990, in which she stated that, the previous year, her husband had raped her in a fit of rage. In Hurt’s account, Trump was furious that a “scalp reduction” operation he’d undergone to eliminate a bald spot had been unexpectedly painful. Ivana had recommended the plastic surgeon. In retaliation, Hurt wrote, Trump yanked out a handful of his wife’s hair, and then forced himself on her sexually. Afterward, according to the book, she spent the night locked in a bedroom, crying; in the morning, Trump asked her, “with menacing casualness, ‘Does it hurt?’ ” Trump has denied both the rape allegation and the suggestion that he had a scalp-reduction procedure. Hurt said that the incident, which is detailed in Ivana’s deposition, was confirmed by two of her friends.

Oh interesting. I read it in the more recent book "Hiding in Plain Sight" but my memory is spotty.

Thanks for the reference.

Yes. She fell down the stairs and died so we will never get to ask anymore questions. Seems like a lot of trumps besties end up dead

Ivanna, not Ivanka.
