Its interesting that a convicted felon in the Whitehouse is comfortable with setting the precedent that a head of state can just be kidnapped and prosecuted for crimes that some other country thinks they committed.

    It's definitely a flex. But said convicted felon was never actually assigned a prison sentence. And the White House is one of the most unassailable points in global geopolitics. Show me the foreign-equivalent Delta Team that plans to arrest the American Caeser.

    The kitchen guy that ketchups the overcooked steaks at Mar a Lago? The guy who changes donny's shit-filled diapers multiple times a day? Any of the power-hungry sociopaths that make up this asshole's entire circle of acquaintances?

    Oh, you said "arrest". My bad.
