He went to Europe pretty regularly, and Saudi Arabia was his first visit after pretending to be becoming president (who could forget that ghastly sword dance??). I remember him acting like a toddler over the military parade held by Macron in France and him outstepping Queen Elizabeth during a visit to England.
And let’s not forget North Korea or Helsinki.
I think the question there was pre so-called president.
He’d been to Russia at least once, and probably several times, before his first candidacy. I believe the infamous pee tape was supposedly taken in 2013.
He also has a habit of playing a ‘club championship’ by himself when he opens a new club. He plays by himself, wins, and then hangs up a plaque.
It’s paywalled, so I won’t link to the Bloomberg article, but …
It’s titled “Everywhere Trump Traveled Before Air Force One: Jet away with flight data from the billionaire’s private fleet.”
Where did he travel when he was just Private Citizen Trump?
I think it’s on point.
I just think it’s interesting.
He traveled abroad a lot before he became president, he traveled abroad during his presidency. But now he’s out of office, so far as I know, he’s never left US soil.
Like @bobot said: Things that make you go, “Hmmm.”
Look at all the trips to Jeffrey Epstein’s island!
LOL!
A bit more granularity on that region:
Last quote … in hopes of staying on the right side of the line:
Trump has arrived in New York prior to his arraignment. Currently staying at Trump Tower.
It was never very likely that he would flee. At least not before he hears the list of charges.
I wonder what we went to Panama for. And did he go to Georgia - the one next to Turkey? That musta been real confusing.
Aside from when he was president, did Trump ever travel overseas except to his golf courses? He is not a man who takes vacations. It’s another thing about him that shows his absolute incuriosity about the world.
Ninja’d above. I should read the whole thread before posting. 
He was supposed to go to his Turnbury golf club in 2022. Then it was stopped for no announced reason.
Trump hasn’t talked about trips since. I wonder about the connection.
It’s not like he hasn’t been welcome before.
That was a year-and-a-half earlier during COVID. Those reasons weren’t applicable in late 2022.
Huh. I happen to have just begun a holiday on this very island. I am tempted to look this up and go look at it, as long as I’m here. I wonder if the local estate agent could get me a tour.
Yahoo news says 34 counts, many of which are the lowest level of felony which even if he was convicted of all of them wouldn’t result in jail time for a first conviction. Also no handcuffs or mugshot.
I am not a New York lawyer, but Google tells me that they have sentencing guidelines based on the type of crime that is charged. Lots of practicing lawyers have websites that appear to lay out the applicable ranges.
There are separate charges for “drug crimes”, but this is a typical example of the sort of sentencing that I’m seeing.
So I’m guessing that most of Trump’s charges are class E nonviolent felonies.
While jail may not be mandatory for such crimes, having dozens of charges typically ups the severity of the sentence.
One question to ask is if the sentences would run concurrent (I.e. at the same time, so a day served is applied to all cases) or consecutive (I.e. one at a time, so he has to finish serving the sentence for one case before he starts serving the sentence for the next case).
Here’s more detail that I’ve found
He’s not going to flee because there is no place he could go where he wouldn’t dread being stuck for the rest of his life. Plus those places have risk of revolution. His presence would be politically destabilizing. So he wouldn’t really be safe anywhere, and – since I’m convinced he’s a smart guy who only looks dumb – he knows it.
And he’s not going to even think about fleeing before finding out if he can get another POTUS term.
The good news is that if convicted of a class E nonviolent felony, then if Trump does it again, he’ll get the minimum 1 1/2 to 3 years in state prison.
This was a good question.
Not in most jurisdictions. Does anyone know if New York is different?
Jurors would expect him to show, and might feel belittled if he rarely, if ever, showed up.
Maybe his defense team will balance that against the risk of an outburst resulting in the judge showing anger against their client. I think such an outburst could solidify the leanings of the jurors, contributing to a hung jury.
