Something I've been thinking about, will trump and his family flee to escape prosecution?

[duforsure]

I've thought that they will for awhile , and now it's even more. Is this why Jared has gone again to that region, to set up a meeting so trump and the family will go to the UAE , then flee, and hide, knowing they'll be exposed for many, many serious crimes? Trump knows he and the family's last resort is to just flee. This scam he's promoting now is just another fraud to raise money for him, and not a 2024 run. He won't go to Russia because he's likely stiffing Putin with refusal to pay back his debts. I expect some meeting overseas to be announced soon , all bs, he'll use as an excuse to go there, then not return claiming again he's innocent , and the victim. Hope I'm wrong, but these people are serious criminals, and desperate.

1. I think that depends on the prosecutions.

At this point, the Trump crime syndicate believe they are above the law.

They might be correct. I'll be happy to see some indictments.

2. +1

[duforsure]

3. Me too,

Hope you're right, and they don't run.

[dchill]

6. Indictments would be nice.

4. I think that since they are all major national security risks...

They will be sequestered in some way. I don't think they'll get far if they try to flee as a number of countries would probably gladly interrupt their journey by filing charges with the ICC for crimes against humanity and gladly deliver them to The Hague. Just a thought but a valid suspicion.

5. Actually, I'd love for him to abscond.

His nefarious dealings as president will still be investigated and laws proposed to keep us safe. If him staying in UAE, Turkey or SA keeps him out of America, his influence with the local nazi types will go way down. He will look like a cowardly fat chicken and the Proud Boy types will desert him for someone more relevant to them. This will prevent him from running again without the daily distractions of him going thru court proceedings.

Of course if he doesn't run, prosecute him up the wazoo. I think a felony conviction would keep him out of WH a 2nd time

7. Go for it, big boy

It wouldn't end well.

8. Good lord, enough conspiracy theory nonsense.

No. They won’t. The end.

Dump and the rest of the Dump Crime Family have all their money and most properties tied up here. If they went on the run to another country, they lose control, assets get seized, etc. Also, there’s these concepts of pride, arrogance, and narcissism. Jr really thinks he’ll take over the NRA. Dump really thinks he’ll live in Merde-A-Lago and run propaganda pay-per-view and run again. Ivanka really thinks she’ll be a politician, and a socialite again.

Why do people believe such silliness? You’d think 4 years of outrageous, arrogant hubris might give people a clue that they believe themselves to be both America’s anointed, and untouchable.

10. According to a more recent post here on DU a former VP is also saying trump may leave the country.

That worked with him in the trump company.

[Jirel]

11. You can find someone who'll say anything. That doesn't mean it's valid.

Said former VP is just that - FORMER. She can comment on things he has done. Her speculation on him leaving the country is no more valid than any other person who doesn't know him, or who hasn't been interacting with the man-baby recently. It's all fun and games, but there is no substance to the rumor.

19. I agree, but...

so many Russian oligarchs have control of said Trump properties that if they begin "dumping" them, it could spell the end of Trump's empire. Thus, he's doing everything he can to appease Putin before his term ends.

[Blue Owl]

9. He can flee to hell

[ooky]

12. Yes.

He'll be gone on inauguration day.

[AwakeAtLast]

18. I agree! n/t

[peggysue2]

13. Just listened to an interview with Barbara Res

Res was a senior contractor for Trump Enterprises back in the day. She said without hesitation that Donny boy will absolutely leave the country if he has any sense that a prosecution is headed his way.

And, of course, he'll claim he's a victim. He's already playing the victim card for the rubes. At the Georgia rally, he said he and the audience were all victims of November's terrible election fraud.

14. No way will the buffoon leave the states.

He’s the quintessential ugly American.

He couldn’t deal with life anywhere else.

[cbdo2007]

15. I think he'll leave also. My guess is there are multiple sealed indictments waiting for him to leave

office because they know it would be pointless to release them now.

He could easily go to the middle east and be harbored there for the rest of his life. Jared has all the connections set up, Trump just needs to get away. I think security is too tight while he is President but now that he's planning to go to Mar-a-lago on inauguration day, that would be the perfect place to do the old switch-er-oo so he can escape out the back door.

[onenote]

16. Not a chance.

He'll use those prosecutions, which will drag on for a long time, as a basis for raising more money. Plus, it's part of his personality disorder for him to be 100 percent convinced he'll be found innocent.

[Wounded Bear]

17. Probably, and the MAGATs will misspell it "persecution"...

[brooklynite]

20. No.

21. If he heads for his aircraft the FBI will be waiting to pull his passport.
