Flight Risk?

Has Smith lost his mind?

With multiple real estate properties outside the USA, a history of possessing multiple passports, and ample means for international travel, of course Trump is a flight risk, and objectively so.

Doesn’t sound like it was smith, rather the Dc circuit. Of course the flight risk is absurd.

Then there was the added rational that was tucked into footnote 2 of the D.C. Circuit opinion: Trump might flee.

@Axtremus

Ever heard of the Secret Service?

[taiwan_girl]

Didn't President Trump say in a recent speech that he would rather live overseas?

So maybe he is a flight risk.

[jon-nyc]

Trump hates America.

Ever heard of the Secret Service?

And he’d rather live in France.

Which may explain why he’s a cheeseburger-eating surrender monkey when it comes to Russia.

What did France ever do to America to deserve this? They gave you the freaking statue. They tried to talk you out of invading Iraq. And this is how you repay them?

[Axtremus]

What has France done for us lately?

Not sure I understand. Doesn't the Secret Service travel with the President (or ex President) where ever he goes, even if it is overseas?

Well, honeychile, I do declare. You've got the tip of the iceberg.
How about some informative reading?

Flight risk?

The thought of Trump "quietly" flying off in Trump Force 1 to be forced to go and live in some shithole country would be worth losing his magnificent presence for ever.

Disappointed that @jon-nyc hasn't made a crack about the plane not being able to lift off with the "fat man" aboard.

Slacker...

Well, if he is thinking of going to see his buddy, Premier Kim of DPR Korea, he will not be able to go on his US passport. The US Ministry of Foreign Affairs just extended the ban on US passports in DPR Korea,

[Jolly]

Gee, aren't you being silly?

[taiwan_girl]

@Jolly Of course I am.

But it is interesting that the DRPK is the only country currently that the US government says that it is illegal to travel there.

The 10 "best" passports for visa free travel are:
