I find trillion dollar mask orders a bit difficult to believe. At a high rate of $1 per disposable mask that would be enough for 2,847 masks for every person in the USA. 1 Trillion / 350 million = 2847. Disposable masks generally cost about .35 each so that would be 8541 per US citizen.
CA has a population of 39.5 million. A billion dollar order would at $1 each buys 25 masks for every person in CA. More plausible. At 3 for $1 a billion dollar order would buy 75 masks per citizen of CA,.
I think that if he were to actually flee to China he'd be in a much worse position. People who are no longer of value to a communist regime seem to have a habit of disappearing.
