No...

That is called Interstate Flight To Avoid Prosecution.

Federal crime - FBI would be responsible for arresting him.

This was tried in a state court, not a federal one, so how can it be a federal crime?

IMHO Trump should schedule as many debates and speeches as he can, but not avoid NY for the sentencing.

Then when the NY Dim judge sentences Trump (be it behind bars or house arrest or whatever) Trump should make the Dims own it. When Trump has to miss some of the debates and speeches, Trump should send the best PR person he could ever have, a dude named Vivek, in his place AND EVERY STATEMNET VIVEK MAKES at the debates should be proceeded by "Trump can't be here to say this because you Democrats jail your political opponents..." Make the Dims own their oppressive tactics. Every time the Dims say, "Big Oil" or "Big Corporation" Vivek and every Trump supporter should say that oil corporations don't jail their opponents like Democrats do.

“That is called Interstate Flight To Avoid Prosecution.”

He’s a Resident of Florida, not New York.
There is no flight until he is legally ordered to jail, or appear in court, and THEN refuses, after appeal.

He’s not avoiding prosecution, he’s avoiding imprisonment. I am pretty sure that even in New York he can get bail pending his appeal.

Sending the FBI to arrest Trump and drag him back to NY to serve a state sentence might be easier said than done in a few states I know of. I don’t think it would be a good idea for Trump to try it and I don’t think he would consider it, but a blue on blue confrontation between the FBI and state or even local law enforcement is not out of the question. Heck even the Secret Service probably wants a piece of the FBI’s ass.

Some months ago Governor DeSantis told Trump that he would not extradite him to NY if he stayed in FL and avoided NY.

He should move in with USSC Justice Thomas, and run a basement campaign for President. When or if he wins, he tosses power to his Veep for a weekend, and has him pardon him while he gets a medical tuneup.

That is also campaigning for a national office. He just can’t sit in his basement. Travel is necessary.
