How can I use jQuery to find all the <br/> tags within a div with class "post" and add an additional <br/> tag after each?

Just guessing here but I would try using the .after function like this

$('div.post br').after('<br/>');

Try something like this :

$('div.post br').each(function() {
    $(this).after($(document.createElement('br')));
});

But as an advice, you should avoid using <br /> tags in <div> elements. Formatting should be done by CSS, for example you can add a margin-after to your div to have the same result.
