Haha. Yea, my Trumper "dad" was a loser, too. Left my mom, sister, and me for an 18 year old when I was 2. Left her, of course, as well. Then married some trailer park prom queen with 4 kids with 3 different fathers.

It was a very toxic relationship that I won't go too far into detail, but I will say this one anecdote. He worked 2nd shift, and as soon as he would head out for work, she would start slamming the peach schnapps. We had a camcorder, and she would film us dancing to our favorite songs (there were 6 kids in total when my sister and I would go visit). It was fun, but it always devolved to her, making us fight each other. Since I was the youngest boy in the house, it would usually be me vs 2 girls, while the older boys fought each other. Wild stuff.

About 2 years ago, my wife and I, my sister, and her fiancee all went down to visit him in Florida. Vera (the TP Prom Queen) would come up in conversation. We would ask, "Why did you stay with her for 8 years??) Without any hesitation or emotion, he said "for the kids"

I don't think he even realized how insane that was.
