He's not a Smirnov that no one knows. Whether he has surrendered his passport or not, the Secret Service has him under constant surveillance.

And unless his Secret Service can fly a Boeing 757, they’ll have little ability to stop his flight crew.

I’ve heard his SS are loyal to him anyway. They’d probably help plan the escape

(He’s not going anywhere. He believes he’s untouchable and will never go to prison)

I reckon he's still convinced that he'll beat all this. Too arrogant for his own good.

I think he knows that Russian oligarchs are on a different level of corruption, with years of experience and deep connections. His grifting senses probably tell him he would never be taken seriously and it could be dangerous. He would avoid that.

and live in a ranch house. No tall buildings for Tr**p in Russia. Although at his age if he fell out of a window on the ground floor - it would probably really hurt him.

1st: Runs when? Before trial, before sentencing, after sentencing, or not at all?
2nd: Runs where? Russia? Saudi? UAE? China? Mar-a-lago?
3rd: Runs to who? Putin? MBS? Jared? ( long odds) Melania? (longer odds!)

Lots of action!
