      Presumably, if he lands in any country that actually respects international law (which is a fair few) he will be arrested.

        lol yeah that’s not happening.

        The potential host country could decline not to host the President and that’s about it. Countries can do that right now and I wouldn’t blame him, although I doubt Trump will be traveling much.

        The set of countries that would enforce an ICC warrant against Trump is a subset of the set of those that would enforce one against Netanyahu. None of the countries the POTUS would actually go to belong to the latter.

          At this point, Canada and Mexico are probably in the mood to do it. His handling of Ukraine and Russia might have parts of Europe on board too.

            In the mood? From what I see rn, that would simply be grounds for a landwar.

              The US is literally already trying to use a trade ware to threaten our sovereignty and they even keep saying that’s exactly why they’re doing it. The war has literally already started, if less overtly violently.

              I’d love to put him in cuffs, and give him fair warning that if he steps off the plane that’s what’s going to happen. That’s if we don’t say “sorry, we don’t have a policy that allows for leaders of enemy states to land without express permission. Say yea, you flew here, what happens next is up to you.

                That’s if we don’t say “sorry, we don’y have a policy that allows for leaders of enemy states to land without express permission.

                This is actually the most likely outcome. Nobody would want to deal with the absolute shitstorm arresting the orange turd would cause so instead they’ll just deny him entry.
