    Default Where is trump?

    Is he in Florida or New York? If he’s in Florida, how will New York authorities perform an arrest? Can he fight extradition?

    Gaetz has apparently gone out saying that DeSantis is being a disloyal weenie for not saying loudly that he'd refuse to honour a New York (or presumably Georgia) extradition request.

    If his legal staff are worth half of what he claims to pay them, all arrangements will be made prior to his "surrender". This mythical arrest is merely a procedural step. He'll show up, get processed, and be out ranting to the press before happy hour.

    He'd be an absolute fool to do anything to avoid it, all this talk of extradition from florida is just his camp giving The Base something to moan about.

    There are some reports that he's said he wants to be handcuffed, preferably hands behind his back, for the visual impact in his later fundraising.

    Let's see; It's been two days since he was expected to be indicted? Should we keep counting? Run a pool?

    Bear in mind that trump is the one who set that goalpost. Really not at all surprising that it hasn't happened as he predicted.

    Nobody involved in the actual legal process has said anything about when anything is going to happen.

    He's apparently raised about $1.5M since "leaking" the expectation. And doubtless he'll be able to use the absence of the indictment as "proof" that his base's overwhelming and lucrative reaction has cowed the prosecutors. That the sole reason (other than being totally innocent) he's not been indicted is because they sent all those cheques and direct payments enabling Trump to build a legal team intimidating like nothing anyone's ever seen before.

    Wait for the call and response lines at his planned fundraiser/rally at Waco, at the 30th Anniversary party he's holding there this weekend.

    Doesn't matter where he is, Bragg's grand jury has "major dissention" within it, just a very weak political stunt that's going nowhere, no different than the last seven years.

    It must be strange to have an ego that wants to be arrested

    Right, all the decisions against him to date he paid for. Rich people shouldn’t be harassed with little piddling violations of law.

    Maybe they'll get leg irons on him and he'll 'fall down the stairs' several times on the way to the elevator.

    I'd think a strip-down and cavity search would be warranted.

    Although I'd pity the poor cop who had to do it.

    Trump's problem is that he is constantly accompanied by members of a federal law enforcement agency. After an indictment for crimes they will escort him to any arraignment or into the custody of those who will do so.

    All the money that Trump is sucking out of his supporters is money that wont be available to support Republicans in the upcoming election campaign .
    Thats a good thing in my opinion.

    ^ That the Stumps continue to give money to a supposed billionaire ( and confirmed grifter ) proves what useful idiots they are.

    Sadly, that is money that won't go to feeding kids, or buying medicine for grandma, or the kids, and the shoes that were already pinching the kid's feet in Sept. will just go on pinching until the diabetic feet get ulcers, and then the ER will take care of it on the rest of our bills.
    These people don't think so far ahead that tomorrow is of consequence.
    Buy it on credit, default on your loan, run it in to the ground before it's repo-ed, and do it again in a month with a different credit card.

    This is literally how some of my neighbors live.
    Now, mom and dad go on vacations, and leave the kids at home with $50 and no way to get food unless a kindly neighbor takes them to the store, and fills in the voids where the $50 didn't quite cover basic food costs for 4 young teen aged kids for 10 days.
    Now the bank has foreclosed, and they're living in a camp trailer somewhere on some one else's property, but they still have the boats (2) over in St. Augustine that the bank doesn't know about, and the year old John Deere Tractor has grown legs and disappeared to someplace out of this county.....
    That's the way these people operate.... And he's in school trying to get his CJ degree so he can become a cop..... Not kidding.

    Just follow his sign; I hear he's shi--ing his pants over getting arrested.
