How ironic would it be if tRump's family secretly bolted from the country, seeking asylum

elsewhere all packed into tRump's private jet and Mexico was the only one that would temporarily grant it to them.

I doubt Russia would have any use for them at this point. They'd basically be broke grifters without a home.

Trotsky was assassinated in Mexico City by Ramón Mercader, a Spanish-born NKVD agent. On 20 August 1940, Mercader attacked Trotsky with an ice axe and Trotsky died the next day in a hospital. Mercader, who acted upon instruction from Stalin, was nearly beaten to death by Trotsky's bodyguards, and spent the next 20 years in a Mexican prison for the murder. Stalin presented Mercader with an Order of Lenin in absentia.

But I think Mexico would grant them asylum temporarily just for the spectacle of kicking their asses to the curb at some later date when their cash ran out.

...and anyone who has already used him will deny him sanctuary, since letting him stay will confirm their culpability.

When Trump goes down, he’ll have nowhere to run — which actually makes him more dangerous.

He fondled their orbs. When you let someone fondle your orbs, it takes your relationship up to the next level....

Jared has this all lined up.

Ostensibly according to him he was talking about SCHIFF, but he was clearly bouncing off the inside of his head as he quivered through the phrase "RESIGN IN DISGRACE!1"
