Especially narcissistic sociopaths like the Trumps.

But yes I suppose they could be this grandiose.

Place all the money they embezzled from the US taxpayer into regular bank
accounts here in the US.

Parked right next to his on the edge of a quiet airport.

Once on board, the us wont be able to board it any more than they could enter an embasy.

The most they could do is ground the plane and wait for passengers to deplane.

Thats IF they knew he was on board.

know that they are going to lose, and thus, ripping off everything but the kitchen sink. If I were a repug, who donated to the tRUMP campaign (a sad mistake of course), I'd be very upset.

I read a few years ago his plane needed work and had sat in a hangar for sometime. I bet those donations are also sustaining his lifestyle.

And is doing jeebus only knows with its money: She can’t be spending all of it on electing her (vomits in mouth) father-in-(out)law. I doubt all all of the remainder is going into Cantaloupe Caligula the Corpulent’s legal slush fund since his active grifting from his meth-addled followers is going (mostly? ) towards paying for his criminal attorneys. I seriously have to wonder if there’s not what is referred to as “creative accounting” going on. After all, it’s not like Caligula is going to change his diapers…stripes…and suddenly do all the bookkeeping aboveboard.
