5. Can no longer find the info on the scrubbed internets, but Roberts' adoption of those kids did a run past Irish law

At the time of the adoptions, Irish law forbade the adoption of Irish children by any non-Irish citizen. The Roberts had a 'straw adopter' officially adopt those kids, then took them to a small South American country, I seem to recall Belize. From there, she signed over legal custody to the Roberts and they happily returned to the US with the children.

As I said, this info seems to have been well scrubbed from the internet, but up until a few years ago, it was available from very respected sources.

Roberts is dirty and probably being blackmailed along with anybody else Trump needs to keep his own ass out of jail and be allowed to engage in all the scams he thinks up.

As to offspring, only one in five of Trump's was born to a mother who was a US citizen at the time of the births.
