If deprived of the ability by the election to continue to grotesquely abuse the power for which he has less Experiential, Intellectual, moral qualitification than any previous holder in order to pervert The justice department into persecute his betters and escape justice for his own crimes
Make it a binding commitment For the rest of the Republican Party, with penalties for breach, and we have a deal.
But would Putin make it so obvious as to take him in?
Saudi Arabia certainly would have no use for him if he is no longer president, and would not let him stand on the way of relationships with a Biden administration.
In his honor China would probably open every archives to rediscover long forgotten methods of Personal Retribution
Perhaps Boris will allow him to build a final trump brand golf course in northern tip of the Shetlands.

He'll probably spin it to a satirical comment making fun of Democrats.

Who gives a fuck?
Stay, leave - it won't change much...
Biden wins - nothing will change - 8 years of
President Obama didn't teach you anything?
You'll bitch, piss, moan and cry about "the ( R )s stonewalling us" -for 4 or 8 years and nothing will change....
We'll just get more jokes about a new president - then in a few years the ( R )s will win back the presidency....
Lather, rinse, repeat...
Welcome to two party politics motherfuckers.....

Except that the Democratic president tends to always do a great deal for the people while in office, even lowering the deficit, while the only ones complaining are the Republicans voters for whom their elects never do anything because its all about reversing what good Democrats have done and providing outrageous tax cuts to the filthy rich. Democrats have a right to complain when Republicans are in office, because the ignorant Right always makes things worse.

I've said it elsewhere, if not here- if he loses the election, he'll make a state visit to Russia, and ask for political asylum, handing over Air Force one as a plum for the Russians. That would be quite an intelligence coup. He should be kept off that plane if he loses the election.

Let's not forget how fond of North Korea Trump is. Russia may not be the only choice.

OK, I had to look that up. I saw a lot of feminine pulchritude, tyvm! I'd like to see him dropped into the Mariana Trench with some "Concrete Galoshes". Thank you, Scotty from Star Trek!

I don't know how plausible it is that Trump would actually be prosecuted when he's out of office. I know that Biden's claimed he won't stand in the way of a potential prosecution, but that means nothing about whether or not a prosecution would actually happen.
That said, if Trump were to leave the country to escape prosecution, I think Russia would be the obvious choice, and Trump's longstanding relationship with Putin aside, Russia A) has no extradition treaty with the US, and B) Is not a member state of the International Criminal Court, having withdrawn from it.
Other nations by area that fit both these favourable criteria (citing nations that have either never signed or signed/ratified but withdrew, not nations that have signed and not ratified):
- Europe: Vatican City, Belarus, Russia
- Middle East: Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Armenia, Azerbaijan
- Asia: Kazahkhstan, Turkmenistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Macau, Taiwan, Laos, Vietnam, North Korea
- Africa: Libya, Mauretiania, Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Togo, Equatorial Guinea, Rwanda, Burundi
- Oceania: The Philippines, Indonesia
And let's be realistic, can we really expect Trump to live in any of the Middle Eastern, Asian, or African nations? Or that he's going to suddenly have a conversion to Catholicism so he can hide out in the Vatican?
