Him and Snowden sitting around a table... Good I think Snowden would have to resist the urge to punch him.

Would that make him ineligible for the presidency?
I think he has to appear in person for some of the formalities... but otherwise, possibly no?
That'd make for an interesting conversation when he shows up. “Welcome back to America, Mister President. You're under arrest.”
Doesn't matter how uneligible he is; his people will vote for him.
Sure, but if he's ineligible, then all that does is split the Republican vote and hand the election to the Democrats on a silver platter. Crisis averted.
I've been hoping for the MAGoo/GOP split since 2015.
Not a joke.
Some secret service agents gonna draw the short straw and get sent to Russia
I don't think treasonous defectors get a Secret Service detail
Sorry for the European point of view,but wtf.
A person out on bail joking about fleeing the country would literally mean a direct "go to jail now" card for anyone in any western judicial system I know.
How the fuck is that not happening in the US guys? That's absurd.
He may joke about it, but he's not going to do it
I think he's going to pull some stunt on Thursday, but I don't think he'll flee. He'll only do that if all his legal challenges fail and it looks like he'll be convicted.
