Hypothetically, if Trump flees the US, where would he go?

He’d keep the grift going wherever he lands. He’ll find some stooge who speaks the local language to get the word out, and be begging for money in no time. I always enjoy his mewling pleas for financial support from his rubes - funny for a guy who purports to be rich.

Trump has his own plane. Even if he is convicted (Pleas, God!) he could do a runner while awaiting sentencing – even if he doesn’t have a passport, if he can get to a place that will shelter him without one. I don’t think the 757 has the legs to get to a country like that outside of South America. But let’s say he wants to go to a friendly Middle-Eastern country, or Russia. Doesn’t he also have a business jet? He could stage that at the end of the 757’s endurance, switch planes, and go on. Then Trumpforce One (or whatever he calls it) can catch up with him.

At least… I can see him trying to do it, believing that he wouldn’t be detained on the ramp or shot down trying to take off. :wink:

Not much help unless he can fly it himself. A pilot and crew would have to be willing to risk charges of aiding and abetting a fugitive.

That’s a really good point. There are plenty (think Auschwitz) guards that where just following orders.

I agree that’s a good point. I hadn’t thought it through. I guess I’d make a poor fugitive. (OTOH, I can fly myself… given the right airplane. :wink: )

There’s always somebody willing to do risky shit for a promised outrageous payoff. The problem w Trump is the ginormius gap between “promised” and “payout”.

Among bizjet drivers & former airline pilots he’s pretty (in)famous as an employer. But somehow a new sucker steps up every time an incumbent gets fired for something egregious like being unwilling to work 36 hours straight.

He thinks New Mexico is a different country.

So maybe tell him it’s so much better than the old one and he might go for it.

As much as i dislike Trump, i wouldn’t wish -even on him- what would surely happen if he went to North Korea.

His mouth would get him tortured for sure. You can get killed there for the slightest hint of insult to the Dear Leader. At one point during their meeting, when cameras were clicking away, Trump joked “You aren’t making us look fat are you?” And Un absolutely looked daggers at him. I feel certain Trump would be in a “training camp” in a few weeks.

“Vatican City” Melania approves this message. LoL.
