Let's talk about what "impossible" means. If he had done, or were to do, to Russia, what he did to the United States, he would be dead. Full stop. Pun intended. And then, he truly would have moved to a better place, if you believe that sort of thing. He could attempt a return to a country in the US orbit, and he would have to go to jail for a while. So, not in a better place, in a way. But he would be alive, and in a place with some integrity, which is better in other ways. It is not impossible, in other words, for him to move to "better" places. We see very clearly his priorities in his decision while on Russian soil to speak to the actions of other intelligence services while maintaining silence on the actions of Russian intelligence. If he had any integrity at all he would at minimum maintain silence.
