The order also explicitly limits Trump’s ability to attack witnesses or his co-defendants, including on social media.

    Why wouldn’t the secret service let a bail bondsman carry out the active attest warrant that’s sure to follow if he skips.

    Why would Trump even need a bail bondsman? He can surely afford to pay his own bail and get it all back, rather than taking the 10% bond as a loss.

      I was about to agree, but

      1. Trump never pays for anything up front.

      2. Trump never pays anyone who does a service for him.

      3. Logic and reason do not apply to his behavior.

      I mean they wouldn’t let him skip bail. If he somehow did, they’d probably help get him back.

      But we have no idea how much cash he actually has on hand.

        I would imagine they would. Their duty is to keep him safe, not help him carry out illegal activities. I think they could make the moral choice to take him in as long as they could be sure he would be safe being arrested. And if they can’t be I would imagine they would be pulling the strings to make it safe while keeping tabs and not staying hidden.
