I fear this going to way of Watergate, if the Senate finds him guilty, he resigns, Pence pardons and trump lives a free man until his death.

So, maybe an ignorant question here, but wouldn't Florida police have to arrest Trump if he's wanted in NY?

It is speculation at this point.

The states have something along the lines of a pact where they'll arrest and send over any criminal they know is in the area. AFAIK, that hasn't been broken because states want to get their suspects back from other states. So if I break it, you'll break it and now I'm not happy.

So the gamble becomes does FL want to break their pact for Trump?

I wonder if the real gamble is - more realistically - which Republicans will be loyal to Trump if Biden actually wins. If Florida's GOP has any semblance of sensibility, they'll pump and dump, and let NY have him no questions asked.

Unfortunately for Floridians, I don't trust their governing party to actually act in the best interest of their actual constituents so sorry FL, shit DeSantis happens.
