(12,712 posts)We have had bad and even criminal Presidents, but this clown takes the cake.
I think that the system was "soft" on them for the sake of respect for the office and avoiding a collective disgrace, (though I am not ruling out other reasons).
This time, we essentially have the worst case scenario. Not only should the Orange Feces be defeated, but he truly deserves both prosecution and disgrace. This time we would be honoring the office by making him an example that you don't do that to our country. A big, NO! GO! GET OUT! FACE THE MUSIC YOU INHUMANE DISASTER! You are a POX ON OUR COUNTRY THAT IS EQUIVALENT TO THE VIRUS ITSELF.
What will his potential game be? Well, I bet he will concoct a conspiracy theory if he takes flight, right? He could seek easily fabricate "seeking asylum" by evoking a persecution complex about the "deep state", etc., in order to continue to manipulate what's left of his base and save face, knowing full well they will believe it.
That's just my sense of it and prediction of what his kind of machinations would lean towards. Plotting!

(317 posts)He can't buy protection from any dictator anymore & nor bribe those who have extradition agreements. I'm sure CIA, etc. don't share their secrets with him anymore because he's a scumbag traitor. He has nowhere to go...or his rotten family!

(732 posts)I honestly think that will not happen. Why would Putin want to shelter this man. The amount of division a Trump trial will cause will be enormous. fyi, I don't care I still want the trial.
His passport, is not as useless as mine. People are still traveling, but not as easily, if you have access to a private jet, not so hard. Most countries are asking for a quarantine, if you can afford to do that in both time and money, you can travel.
