    I AM making an argument that cash bond should be eliminated.

    And I am ALSO making the argument that cash bond is meaningless in this case, because they CAN NOT RUN.

      What do you mean they cannot run? They can get on their private planes and fly anywhere in the world. These are filthy rich people.

        Yeah, but Trump is medically incapable of not posting insane ramblings with more information than necessary anywhere that will let him, which I believe is the point they were making

        The Secret Service knows Trump’s whereabouts at all times. He’s not going to slip away from them.

        As for the others, even the ultra-wealthy’s private jets are easily tracked via publicly available data.

          What are they going to do, get in their fighter jets and force the plane to come down before it crosses into international airspace? Come on.

            The plane won’t take off. Their pilot’s not going to fly internationally without filing a flight plan and they’re not going to go on the lam with their client.
