President Trump potentially faces a torrent of criminal charges when he leaves office, including charges linked to the deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, making prosecutors worry that he is a flight risk. Mr. Trump’s real estate empire extends to multiple luxury properties in countries that don’t have extradition treaties with the United States. And Mr. Trump himself publicly mused in October that he’d leave the country if he lost to Democrat Joseph R. Biden. Douglas McNabb, a private attorney with expertise in international extradition defense, said that if criminal charges are brought, Mr. Trump fits the bill for becoming a fugitive from justice.

Douglass McNabb is a blithering idiot.

The left has gone totally hysterical. Starting the moment our VSG descended the escalator at Trump Tower, they have outdone themselves day after day. I believe there is no good ending to this story.

So the president of the USA will get in his 757 and flee to where ? Epsteins's Orgy Island maybe ? The age of STUPID has arrived.

I'd be more worried about the Biden family hiding under the skirts of the commies in China.

Who writes this drivel? Does this guy call himself a journalist? If he does he should be arrested for fraud.

#6, no. This is getting way past the time for arrests to solve anything. When you are dealing with commies who have subverted the law enforcement arms and the judicial arms of the government, they can clearly ignore the law and get away with it. Look at the election fraud that just happened. If that wasn't a wake up call to those who have been slumbering for decades due to normalization bias, nothing will get through their willful blindness and head-in-the-sand posture.

The Dims bring The Banana Republic Indicator closer to 100% every day.
Of course, when you have mail in ballots and dominion voting machines what difference does it make?

With all due respect to my fellow LDotters, you think the Communists aren’t evil enough to do this?
My only consolation is a REAL insurrection if they hurt our President.

And meanwhile, Barack Obama, guilty of more crimes against the United States than Trump could ever imagine committing, sits blocks from the White House, filthy rich and full of hate, pulling Joe Biden's puppet strings.

This is ridiculous. If Trump had committed any crime before taking office, why wasn’t he investigated for it? No one can ever name the crime.

Events in the Kurt Schlichter novel "Crisis" are hardly more remarkable and amazing than what is happening now in real time. Haven’t finished it yet, but hope the good guys come out ahead. Presently it looks like they are about tied.

This kind of nonsense is all the more reason to do a global, general, pardon by Trump of himself and every single member of his family, the admin, and heck even loyal Republicans who voted against impeachment.
Only way to stop the witch hunt.

Trump is getting some very bad advice in his closing days. The speeches should not be made. We are not committing any violence, and have not. Please direct those to the Democrats. Trump has all that power, and has not used any of it against his enemies. Don't be a Bush in the last days.

Will President Trump take his Secret Service detail with him as he “flees” the country? Give us a break. Looks like the very partisan and corrupt Democrats would like to see Trump hauled into Judge Emmet Sullivan’s courtroom to be given the “General Flynn” treatment.

Why should he stay in a communist country that has done all it can to destroy him? I'd leave and never look back. This country deserves the hell that is about to be unleashed. I notice gas prices have gone up 25 cents a gallon already.

The President is a very Smart Man. He has Lawyers who have protected him way before he ran for President. If it's possible, he definitely needs to Pardon himself and anyone else who is going to need one! He needs to move all of his holdings out of New York. Rush Limbaugh probably already told him that! I think it's a bunch of Nasty people chasing after him and I think they will get what they deserve from Someone who sees all and knows all! Meanwhile, we need to rebuild our Party, or start a New One!

Sounds like the swamp is going to put President Trump on trial to search for something to charge him with. Again. Good grief.

I've been saying it a while now. They want the entire Trump family living under a bridge or in jail. I hear Switzerland is a pretty nice country (e.g. Marc Rich - a Clinton pardon recipient). Wait until they start confiscating bank accounts (already started) and property. And don't think they won't try.

They just don’t want any other “outsiders” who are not of the DC career political aristocracy even thinking about making a populist based run for President in the future. In the last few days the DC career political aristocracy has been defending and taking care of themselves without a thought as to how hundreds of thousands of Americans from all over the country to had the time to travel DC to protest on a Wednesday in January. Could it be because a big percentage of them are unemployed or lost their small businesses during 2020 because of all the politically based lockdowns?

A US veteran was shot by the police, apparently, and that makes it a "deadly insurrection"? What was all the looting and burning of our cities all summer, a marshmallow roast? If they really try to do all this to him, I wouldn't blame President Trump if he renounced his US citizenship and washed his hands of all of us as a hopeless case.
Either that, or start a new political party and some form of internet communications, and he will instantly have tens of millions of Americans join up. That may be the only way we can fight back against these devils.

It appears that the Washington times is sucking up to the socialists lately. "Whichever way the wind blows" comes to mind. They are taking their cue from Hume, no doubt.

Not so crazy. Many leaders of other countries have fled their country because of rebel takeovers. The trouble with Americans is that, for some reason, they think that things like that just can't happen here and refuse to open their eyes.

No trial has found our PRESIDENT TRUMP guilty of ANYTHING. Yet this communist talks out of his rear end. If there was a trial there is zero evidence of insurrection. This is what communist do but there are still free people in this country who are not on the communist plantation.

Where are the moderate democrats, the elder statesmen, who know that this is getting out of hand. I know that there are many "classic liberals" who voted for Trump. Why aren't they screaming about this insanity? Are they so afraid of "the squad", antifa and BLM? Actually probably the media. These people are going insane driven by their hatred.
