Trump jokes about flying to Russia after bond set in Georgia case

(Apologies for yet another Trump post.)

But given his court appearance Thursday, just funny how he'd start joking about this. I wonder if he actually would, and what would follow. I mean, how would he try to spin it?

Shouldn't this joke be treated like joking about bombs at an airport? At minimum adding a couple of zeroes to the bond?

This. Have we really not learned this lesson? We need to take what he says literally and seriously.

For real. He needs to be in custody right now to ensure he doesn't flee. And no I do not trust the secret service here.

I wonder if they're intentionally giving him an opportunity to escape.
