I wonder if Putin would let us ship donny and his minions

(all of them) to Siberia.

I would start a GoFundMe to pay for plane tickets. On ancient Aeroflot planes.

Once Trump is out of office, he'll have limited value to Putin. Why should Putin shelter him?

More likely, Putin would want a defeated Trump to stay in the U.S. where he could continue to sow discord and chaos from the sidelines. You know that when Trump loses, he'll throw the greatest hissy-fit in history.

His expected behavior is exactly why Trump should be3 tied up with as many legal and financial problems as possible. Then he wouldn't have much time to continue being a pain in our collective asses.

Sending people to Siberia isn't exactly "sheltering them."

...assuming he can't pardon himself....and that NY charges will proceed even if he is pardoned on Fed charges...and his debt payments coming due are what NYT is reporting...and his properties are worth less after he's out of office and high money losers ongoing due to the pandemic he didn't control...an apartment next to Snowden may start looking good. Of course his friend in North Korea could also be there for him. Oh, if only!
