Donald Trump paid ex-wife in dresses - CNNPolitics.com
(CNN)When Donald Trump's first wife, Ivana, worked for the Trump empire years ago, she received an unusual form of compensation: "One dollar and all the dresses I can buy."
More than two decades after the couple's divorce, Trump is the Republican Party's top presidential candidate and likes to boast that female executives at his company are paid handsomely.
The couple's marriage deteriorated as rumors began to swirl about Trump's extra-marital affair with Marla Maples -- a woman Trump married in 1993.

So how did he treat Marla?

Trump Threatened to Cut Off Alimony to Marla Maples if She Spoke Negatively About Him
“If he is really serious about being President and runs in the general election next year, I will not be silent,” Maples said. “I will feel it is my duty as an American citizen to tell the people what he is really like.”
“But I can’t imagine that they would really elect him, would they?” she added. “His drug is attention. He’s so ego-driven.”
Trump and his attorneys then threatened to pocket the remaining money she was owed. Trump’s lawyer, Jay Goldberg, told the Daily News that Maples might have been “liable for sanctions” if she’d spoken out about their marriage.
A Manhattan judge finally ordered that the billionaire pay Maples what she was owed.

What happens when he gets tired of the current one?
