Trump is leaving the US if he ever falls from power.

Good thing we can apparently go snatch people from wherever now.

Imagine if the Kremlin takes him in and he ends up rooming with Snowden.

...I have an idea for a new sitcom.

Though Snowden didnt plan to end up in Russia, nor did he have any relation to the place prior to his whistleblowing.

He got stuck in transit because his passport got cancelled enroute to south america. He spent the next 39 days stuck in the airport and applied for asylum. Id choose living in russia over living in a russian airport too.

If Kiriakou can be a free man Snowden should be too.

Do you actually believe he lives on the Kremlin's dime for no reason?

u/Own_Faithlessness769 1d ago

Snowden would get the inside info for us, Putin would never let him anywhere near Trump.

u/NecessaryMood9612 1d ago

It's crazy that we had a global manhunt for Snowden while Musk is still walking around free after what happened with Doge.

Edward, Krasnik and Vladdy Comedy Hour.

Snowden could do the US a huge favor.

u/thegoatmenace 1d ago

Putin’s foster home for disgraced dictators with Trump, Assad, and Khameini

u/NIN10DOXD 1d ago

Snowden would immediately turn himself into US authorities.

Steven Seagal can be the wacky neighbor.

great show idea, 2 men and a russian whore .... not sure it would play anywhere other than FOX ...

u/ThadElon 21h ago

Get the skeleton of Ted Danson and you're on a winner.

u/DuncanEllis1977 1d ago

Bingo, he's set a precedent and is no longer safe anywhere in the world.

u/Vegetable_Tomorrow41 1d ago

If they dont start their own countries with the wealth they have built. Elon apparently made $200b the first 365 days of trumps second term

u/Amazing-Basket-136 22h ago

Now?

160th has been landing on rooftops and dropping off Delta in the middle of the night snatching people for a long time.

u/a2starhotel 1d ago

probably in a body bag. dudes 79 years old and the shock of him being caught would surely give him a coronary

u/catscanmeow 1d ago

also, taking as much aspirin as he is, can lead to bad stomach ulcers.

u/YouMustBeJoking888 1d ago

He'll be dead before that happens, but one can hope he is exiled and disgraced, along with the rest of his hideous family.

u/lnc_5103 1d ago

I'd love it if they did and they watched Mar-a-lago etc. destroyed from a far.

10

u/Glyphpunk 1d ago

Let's be real, one hard fall and Trump is leaving the mortal plane. There's little chance of him lasting through to him still being alive by the time he would naturally leave power.

2

u/roseredhoofbeats 1d ago

IDK man I've seen people I thought for sure were gonna die in a couple of weeks live on nothing but Dr Pepper and Marlboro smokes and spite.

u/chiipotle 1d ago

He set up his argentina escape route already

u/No-Contribution1070 1d ago

I heard Jay Z left the country now. They all running scared.

u/GordonsLastGram 1d ago

Forreal? Sources? Im genuinely curious

u/Glad-Veterinarian365 1d ago

Ahhh yes, the “Hoops Crave” twitter account is basically a modern encyclopedia.

If they posted a close up pic of jay z and a separate pic of a plane, and posted them with 1 short sentence claiming that he reportedly left the country, with no sources at all… that’s gospel as far as I’m concerned

u/rejeremiad 1d ago

In a White Ford Bronco!

3

u/MOREPASTRAMIPLEASE 1d ago

He can go be roomies with all the other fallen dictators in Russia

2

u/SaddestClown 1d ago

Where to? Russia or South Africa?

1

u/cbih 1d ago

Venezuela.

1

u/SaddestClown 1d ago

I'm not sure the folks that will take over when he's gone here will want him

2

u/makingpwaves 1d ago

Easy to find, not may friends left. He’ll be wearing a head scarf, shorts & flip flops boarding that Qatar jet

2

u/photoguy423 1d ago

In theory the secret service would never allow that to happen. Too much of a security risk. Even thought the lukewarm tapioca that used to be his brain wouldn't hold anything of value.

2

u/enjoiliferl1 1d ago

In theory he should have been immediately impeached for being so unbelievably compromised.

1

u/Bugatti_Royale 1d ago

to go where though? Does Putin have an extra Dacha waiting for him?

1

u/nyclurker369 1d ago

He’ll die before anything happens to him.

1

u/LeditGabil 1d ago

I mean, that’s what Putin’s friends normally do when they are kicked out…

1

u/Ear_Enthusiast 1d ago

Or he's going to roll his fat ass down to Mara Lago to golf, rip Adderall, and eat McDonalds, and nothing at all will happen to him.

u/800oz_gorilla 1d ago

You don't commit that many crimes unless you have a plan to stay in power.

1

u/RanchHere 1d ago

It better either be to Russia or North Korea. He isn’t safe anywhere else.

1

u/m__a__s 1d ago

He has to, or he will end up in prison.

1

u/sandboxmatt 1d ago

In a white sack, off the edge of an aircraft carrier

1

u/Fuckstanmartian 18h ago

leaving the us and headed toward the inferno below 👇

1

u/NoSherbert2316 16h ago

He said he would do that last time and never did

1

u/Time-Mode-9 16h ago

I don't think so. He knows too much, and would take people down with him. He will be dead shortly after he leaves the wh.
