AP news says Trump will be released without bond

Trump will be released without having to pay a bond. He will not have to surrender his passport or restrict his personal travel.

that is so infuriating to me. no one should be above the law; trump and his cronies say the same thing. with so many americans getting profiled and wrongfully arrested and sentenced this makes me beyond angry

Meanwhile, someone allegedly steals a backpack in NYC and languishes in jail for years, then dies without ever having their trial.

So under arrest really means he checked into the courts and said "Yup, I am fighting this legal charge." and walked away.

He is too stupid to flee. I bet his brain broke when he pleaded not guilty and the charges weren't immediately dropped. He thinks he is going to get out of this like all the other times he faced legal troubles

That would be hilarious.

Well tbh both his ego and his bank account command him to try to run for president again so I don't see him fleeing.

As strange as it sounds, he is legally able to do both of those while in exile.

Imagine the secret service making themselves comfortable in the Kremlin.

Clearly getting special treatment but the maga crowd will claim it's a targeted attack.
