Another Dumb Question: Shouldn't the Feds be worried

that the First Family is a flight risk?
Trump has money and property overseas.
He has Jarad and Ivana to help him oversee his escape.
Would any of the foreign countries he is visiting give him assylum?
It would get the best ratings- HUGE - if he pulled it off. Better than any other reality show ever!

Overseas. That would save the USA the embarrassment of a drawn out investigation, impeachment and arrests, trials, and the possibility of a president and members of his cabal going to prison.

If they run, let them. That would be a tacit admittance of guilt. Then all law enforcement would have to do it to keep an eye on them in case they try to return (as if they could sneak in anonymously!) so they could arrest them.

I'm rooting for them to never come back. Then the 25th Amendment would be used, Pence would be president and the investigations into Russian collusion could continue.
