Donald Trump Try Diplomatic Immunity
That would not work because if you become a diplomat and represent your country in Country B it will do its own criminal investigation. You have to be 'cleared.' Country B will not accept murderers and insurrectionists.
Donald Trump can still settle for second best and represent the United States (become a diplomat) in some country. The position comes with something very dear to his heart. Which is? Diplomatic immunity.
First of all, tables will have to be turned I guess. Here is a hypothetical situation. Nimarata Nikki Haley will be elected the 2024 Republican nominee. She will run and win against Joe Biden or whoever will be carrying the Democratic Party banner and become president.
She, in turn will appoint her mentor Donald Trump to be America’s United Nations Ambassador. Mentor? Yes, when Trump was U.S. President, he appointed her to that U.N. position. It will be a matter of one hand washing the other, so to speak.
DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY
When Trump becomes ‘His Excellency’ representing the U.S. internationally, he can do as he pleases because of diplomatic immunity. What is it? It’s a gentleman’s agreement that diplomats abroad represent their country therefore, they cannot be accused of criminal and civil crimes done in the execution of their duties.
Diplomatic immunity is enshrined in the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, 1961. One immunity, that is quite contentious is parking. People in major cities don’t like the idea that diplomats can park anywhere, break parking rules with immunity. Diplomats also breeze past airport security because their bags are not touched. The Vienna Convention states that: ….the personal baggage of a diplomatic agent shall be exempt from inspection ….
Donald Trump will love that, if he becomes a diplomat, because his TRUTH SOCIAL will be immune from scrutiny and editing by nosey judges and prosecutors. That’s right. Donald Trump must not despair. If he cannot be president, at least he can he the U.S. United Nations ambassador, with tons of immunity.
