“My mother... came to this country legally.” Hmm. Although there’s been a big focus on Melania Trump’s immigration history, no one’s really focused on Ivana Trump. I dug into a bit earlier this year. You may wanna pull a seat up for this one.https://twitter.com/axios/status/1025020133780205569 …

Ivana likely had a visa by the time. She was either in New York as a tourist or a worker. If someone proposes to you one when you’re on that kind of visa, you can get married right away and it’s legitimate before the United States. That’s not what happened in this case.pic.twitter.com/cGjxjqmVfH

Ivana returned to Canada to pack. Returning to the U.S. on a tourist or work visa, with the intent to marry, would be a big no-no in immigration law. We don’t know exactly what happened, but we do know Ivana waited 11 years to get her citizenship after her marriage to Donald.pic.twitter.com/lbenutaK3N

People do what they can to get to the U.S. They fake marriages. They cross borders. They get by on unauthorized labor. They have children, which are pejoratively called “anchor babies.” Her daughter said her mom came here “legally.” Care to clarify what you meant,

White europeans like Ivana Trump are less scrutinized. Imagine a Maya woman from Guatemala who flaunted a fake marriage just to get a passport. Only some people get to do this, get away with it, and then literally write a book about it... all without consequence.

It's when the Russians took notice of Trump. Marrying a Russian-speaking Czech was something they noticed.
