Why would he?

SQUEEKY2's avatar

Yeah why would he?Like our friend^ he probably truly believes he has done no wrong.
But in case he does I sure as hope it aint the Northern one.

cookieman's avatar

Speaking of borders, the funniest comment I heard recently was that “after witnessing the attack on the US Capital, the President of Mexico has decided to pay for the wall after all.”

Yellowdog's avatar

Actually, it originally was, now that Biden has won, Mexico has decided to pay for the wall.

stanleybmanly's avatar

@Yellowdog why should he?
A. He’s a coward
B. There’s nothing left to lose
C. It upholds his enhanced reputation as a fountain of disgrace
D. His only obstacle is the fact that it’s the smart thing to do

Dutchess_III's avatar

I think he’ll disappear .

LostInParadise's avatar

A fitting ending would be for him to be forced to declare bankruptcy, due to the lawsuits against him. If that happens, he will have in effect disappeared. Nobody would pay attention to him.

stanleybmanly's avatar

@DutchessIII Leaving his fans alone (AS USUAL) to suffer the consequences.

Yellowdog's avatar

You’ve greatly underestimated Trump.

stanleybmanly's avatar

I believe that we sadly overestimate you.

SQUEEKY2's avatar

Wouldn’t it be cheaper if he did make a run for it?
He should split and live out his days rooming with his pal Putin.

elbanditoroso's avatar

Where would he go?

Netanyahu is going to jail himself, so Israel isn’t that much of an option.

China doesn’t seem smart either.

He could go to great Britain, where he has a like-minded fool who is the Prime Minister, but that won’t last. And the Scots hate him.

I suppose one option is Moscow – I’ll bet Putin would be happy to put him up, if he makes more pee tapes.

stanleybmanly's avatar

He will run to some tin pot 3rd world autocratic dictatorship. In jail or out, he will be deprived of every dime of his net worth that can be found. Even his future earnings won’t be safe if ever they appear above ground.

RedDeerGuy1's avatar

I think that he will look for, or start, an internet service provider that won’t block him, and will spew vitrial every day till he retires.

I would however drown my sorrows with KFC and prime rib roast every day, if given the opportunity.

Inspired_2write's avatar

Yeah right to Las Vegas casino life.
Golfing.
Trvelling? ( wonder if he is allowed to Travel if he is charges for insurrection or treason?

YARNLADY's avatar

That would be an admission he did something wrong, and he is not capable of that.
By the way, the video of his supposed concession speech is “heavily edited”

stanleybmanly's avatar

@RedDeerGuy1 grab something to nibble on NOW. You should buy cut up raw vegetables—carrots and broccoli. Keep em in the fridge and at the ready. Iced cold apple slices and near frozen clementines are terrific when you are craving soda. Gobble up a few & wash em down with water buried in ice cubes.

I hope he does. But whatever he decides and wherever he ends up at I’m pretty sure whatever political influence he can still wield over his voters…that will be up for sale for those who are deplorable enough to purchase.

The orange worm will never stop damaging the country for as long as he can get away with it without being held accountable.

kritiper's avatar

Where could he go?

Dutchess_III's avatar

Um @kritiper…Greensburg Kansas. They have the world’s deepest well.
...

SQUEEKY2's avatar

Yeah the only problem with that @Dutchess_III he would badly contaminate the ground water for hundreds of miles.

stanleybmanly's avatar

The entire Ogallala aquifer.

misfit's avatar

He’ll fake his death before he gives up and run.

Love_my_doggie's avatar

My greatest fear is that he’ll issue a blanket pardon for anyone who participated in the attack on the Capitol.

jca2's avatar

I agree @Love_my_doggie. Then these guys will only have the professional photos of themselves during that event and they’ll be so proud of themselves.

Inspired_2write's avatar

I don’t think at this point nor in the future any country would want a despot entering?
In short Trump has sealed his fate and its his own immature fault.

Dutchess_III's avatar

I think that’s one of the reasons they’re expediting his removal @Love_my_doggie.

kritiper's avatar

1–11-21 I didn’t think too much about this question until I heard that Trump will visit his wall along the southern border this week. He could bolt to Mexico and seek asylum.

SQUEEKY2's avatar

@kritiper if he does let them have him.

stanleybmanly's avatar

Mexico would NEVER be caught granting Trump refuge.

jca2's avatar

@kritiper: You think Mexico would allow Trump to live there after he called them rapists and criminals?

kritiper's avatar

@jca2 Unknown. But he is going down to that wall. Maybe there’s a Russian plane that will be waiting for him out in the Mexican desert.

Inspired_2write's avatar

@kritiper
Unless he is going to muster up more support from gangs in Mexico all it would take is money.
For the added safety of the U.S. Capital and its people he should be on lockdown and his moves monitored.

YARNLADY's avatar

@Inspired_2write Oh, good point. He could probably bribe enough people with the money he has collected from his duped followers, plus what he has embezzled from the taxpayer covid relief money.

Strauss's avatar

There have been rumors of a flight to Scotland on the morning of Inauguration Day. The Scots have indicated that he’d be unwelcome.

stanleybmanly's avatar

Has everyone noticed that he’s setting the stage. He has already announced that he will not be there when Biden’s hand descends on that bible and that he will be as close to international waters (and the greatest concentration of democracy free autocratic dictatorships from which to choose)? Who says he will set down anywhere near Mar a Lago to face an army of warrant and process servers at the end of the runway?

LostInParadise's avatar

What is trump going to do for income? Do you think he will be selling secret iinformation?

stanleybmanly's avatar

He won’t have any trouble getting attention, and extorting money from suckers in the process.

jca2's avatar

News says he’s going to Florida on the morning of the inauguration.

stanleybmanly's avatar

That’s what I would say, were I in his shoes and headed for the border.

Strauss's avatar

I still think he’s going to disappear (or get “disappeared”).

And he’s not getting the military send-off was hoping for.

Yellowdog's avatar

I think there are too many thugs and goons for him to stay in America.

But Israel would certainly be a good place for him.

Inspired_2write's avatar

@Yellowdog
“I think there are too many thugs and goons for him to stay in America.”

Yeah and it was trumps doing to manipulate them to protest violently at Capitol Hill.
He sows discontent and chaos then leaves it to others to repair the nation, not indicative of a good leader at all.
Why in the world would anyone side with him now nor in the future, knowing what chaos that he is capable of starting.

jca2's avatar

Trumpers referred to Democrats as Sheep. Now I’m starting to think of Republicans who blindly follow Trump as sheep.

SQUEEKY2's avatar

@jca2 ^^ No kidding no matter what ole Donny says or does they just follow him with out question.

Brian1946's avatar

@SQUEEKY2

I agree that’s true for Trump’s troglodytes when he says something antagonistic or narcissistic, but apparently not for some of the more extreme ones, when the script told him to ask for calm after the riot:

Far-right extremists call for the execution of ‘coward’ Trump after he asks for calm following riot.

@Strauss

Thanks for the link to Raw Story.

YARNLADY's avatar

I think his best plan would be to set up a government in exile, maybe in Israel.

stanleybmanly's avatar

No one would allow a ticking bomb like Trump to reside anywhere within their borders unless their reputation was already so horrific as to be impossible to degrade further. Think of places which don’t give a shit about their image or reputation in the world. You only need a few pushpins to cover THOSE candidates.

Dutchess_III's avatar

You mean those “shit hole countries” @stanleybmanly?

Strauss's avatar

I really don’t care!

BYE, FELICIA!
