So Trump wants to flee the country

Seems to me the Manhattan DA should be taking that threat seriously and revisit the convicted felon bail 🤷🏻‍♂️

flee to a Left Wing Dictatorship?
Is that where he’s hoping to take a quick charter flight? Not that far from Florida.
I thought Maduro was some sort of socialist on the commie model.
Isn’t Pooty Poot his pal any more? He’s an ex-commie. And Xi and Un are commies.
But Maduro is also in the dictatorship club with the rest of Mangolini’s pals.
Kinda makes ya wonder….

TFG is running for POTUS to stay out of prison

TFG last night discussed fleeing to Venezuela if he losses



https://www.alternet.org/trump-musk-venezuela/

Legal experts jumped on Trump suggesting a trip to Venezuela, especially given his status as a convicted criminal awaiting sentencing.

“Trump is a convicted felon to be sentenced in a month and he’s talking about fleeing to a country that refuses US extradition requests,” observed MSNBC legal analyst Kristy Greenberg, a former SDNY Criminal Division Deputy Chief. “Anyone else would be in jail. Trump is showing yet again that he isn’t amenable to Probation’s supervision and must be sentenced to jail time.”

There are countries where TFG could flee which do not have an extradition treaty with the US


If TFG loses, TFG will do what he can to avoid jail.

I assumed that it was some kind of satire, The Gorowitz Report perhaps.

Now I realize that he actually said it. Satire can no longer keep up with reality.

Wherever he goes, it will be someplace without an extradition treaty with the US

With his big mouth and lack of impulse control - he’ll piss off someone powerful and end up in prison or dead.

We will never want him back and conscript him at your leisure!

Some photos of the remains with sharpie work we promise will be appreciated at least for the comedy and/or closure.
