"So, what should I do? You're the high-falutin' lawyer. You tell me what to do."
"Mr. Trump, as I see it you've got four options and none of them are all that good.
Your first option is to resign the presidency, surrender and throw yourself on the mercy of the court. Tell them you were led on by the treachery of others.
Advantage: We might be able to get you a year and a day if the court is being benevolent, but five years is probably more likely if you show contrition. Uhh...that means you at least act like you're sorry for being a total putz and a guy who treated the US Criminal Code like his personal bucket list.
Disadvantage: The Russian mafia is probably going to whack you in prison. But...that's not my fuckin' problem; I wasn't the one who told you to get yourself in hock up to your eyeballs to those people.
Second option is to disappear. Pack your shit, get a bag of Big Macs, beat your phone flat just like Hillary did, tell Melania she'll never have to look at you again, and get the fuck out of town. Go somewhere no one will find you, and never come back.
Advantage: If you figure out the last place on earth, you might possibly live out your days in relative peace and quiet.
Disadvantage: The CIA, FBI, NSA, KGB, GRU, Mossad, and all the people you still owe money to will be looking for your ass. Yeah, I know the Russian mob plays for keeps, but you haven't seen what the fuck Wells Fargo is going to do to you if they catch up with you. And unlike all those other low-rent outfits, the banks have the money to track your ass down.
Third option is to fake your own death before you disappear.
Advantage: If you do it well enough, they might not come looking for you, for a couple days at least.
Disadvantage: You're too fucking stupid to do it well enough to fool anyone. All you'll do is piss people off.
The fourth option is to get a loaded .45 and shoot yourself in the head with it. This is probably your best option because no one will come looking for you, and it'll be a less painful death than what the Russian mafia has planned for you otherwise."
