34. She was already rich
Tue Sep 23, 2025, 11:40 PM
Tuesday

I copied text from a captioned pic. Haven't found the original, but it's enough to prompt further research.

She was Miss Arizona 2012 for Trump's Miss USA pageant. Her mom worked for the Dept of Homeland Security and has ties to the Dept of Defense. She was a millionaire before marrying Kirk, and now has amassed his fortune and media empire. ...Fans are encouraging her to run for VP in 2028.


She allegedly operated a ministry in Romania that was accused by local residents of "relocating" children internationally under the pretense of orphan or mission work.


I'm trying to get it out of my head that Trump was fond of watching "his" pageant contestants in the changing room.
