Impeachment won’t be happening. Twenty-fifth Amendment won’t be happening.

No worries. Trump is a Florida resident and Florida allows no-fault divorce. Following is an excerpt from the statute:

FLORIDA STATUTES

TITLE VI
CIVIL PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE

CHAPTER 61

DISSOLUTION OF MARRIAGE

61.052 Dissolution of marriage.—

(1) No judgment of dissolution of marriage shall be granted unless one of the following facts appears, which shall be pleaded generally:
(a) The marriage is irretrievably broken.
(b) Mental incapacity of one of the parties.

(2) Based on the evidence at the hearing, which evidence need not be corroborated except to establish that the residence requirements of s. 61.021 are met which may be corroborated by a valid Florida driver license, a Florida voter’s registration card, a valid Florida identification card issued under s. 322.051, or the testimony or affidavit of a third party, the court shall dispose of the petition for dissolution of marriage when the petition is based on the allegation that the marriage is irretrievably broken.

If, at any time, the court finds that the marriage is irretrievably broken, the court shall enter a judgment of dissolution of the marriage.

Is the marriage between America and Trump irretrievably broken? The evidence is overwhelming. No recriminations, no bitter accusations. No need to resort to mental incapacity (61.052(1)(b)). Just an end to a relationship that does not work.

Can we find a judge in Florida who will dissolve this marriage? It may be hard, but it is worth a try.
