I am not sure about that part…
He constantly has a secret service detail. He isn't a flight risk because he can't even try without being noticed.
I suppose he could run into his private jet and take off before they catch him, but I just can't see the man running very far or fast
Does the SS have any reason to control him? I thought they just followed him around like puppies.
Remember, this is the same judge that he had before. She's covered for him once, this is her doing it again.
I mean while he could physically fly away very easily it's unlikely he would risk losing access to his properties and accounts in the US.
How is him fleeing forever to a foreign country not a win for everyone?
Because then he would quite literally be escaping justice.
Fair enough.
He would default all the civil suits and all his money would be seized.
because crime should be punished even when the criminal is rich.
Plus do you really want him running a presidential campaign from Russia or something and deal with his blind cult still maybe voting him in or repeating a January 6th at airports?
He would get at 30% of the vote from prison too. Either way, he's not legally allowed to run.
Yeah, he's a goner.
