Trump Jokes About Fleeing To Russia To Escape Prosecution

"I'd fly far away, maybe to Russia, Russia, Russia, share a gold domed suite with Vladimir, never to be seen or heard from again," mused the not-very-insane former President.

Seems a perfect fit.

Former President Donald Trump joked about fleeing the country to "share a gold domed suite" with Russian President Vladimir Putin after a $200,000 bond was set in Fulton County, Georgia.

Trump announced on Monday that he would travel to Georgia on Thursday to be arrested and arraigned on felony charges. The former president is facing 13 counts, accused of attempting to overturn his 2020 presidential election loss in the Peach State.

Earlier in the day, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee set Trump's bond at $200,000 and ordered conditions for his release that included a stipulation that he "shall perform no act to intimidate" potential witnesses or any of his 18 co-defendants.

Trump commented on the bond in a Truth Social post on Monday night, mocking Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis for potentially considering him a "flight risk" while pointing out that he would have little chance of leaving the country and remaining inconspicuous.
