If you are going to cite the law, at least read the thing first. This is what is stated in
the law that regulates the timeliness of prosecution:
4) In calculating the time limitation applicable to commencement of a criminal action, the following periods shall not be included:
(a) Any period following the commission of the offense during which (i) the defendant was continuously outside this state
in no event shall the period of limitation be extended by more than five years
Conald Trump was president between 2017 and 2021. Since then, his main residence is in Florida. Altogether, he's spent only a few months in New York between when he committed his alleged crimes (2016) and now. Or, perhaps you forgot that the POTUS resides in the White House, which is located outside of New York?
Oh and another thing, they couldn't indict Trump before now because the indictment didn't exist until now. I'm embarrassed for you I had to point that out.
I did a little checking on the source of your claims. lol at you falling for just another lie by Trump:

Q&A on Grand Jury Investigation of Trump in New York
What is Trump’s response to the indictment? 
Trump also claimed prosecutors “are MANY years beyond the Statute of Limitations which, in this instance, is TWO YEARS.” While the statute of limitations is two years for most misdemeanors in New York, it is five years for felonies like the one that Trump might face. And that can be extended for any time a defendant spends “continuously outside this state [New York]” — such as if someone was living in Washington, D.C., or Florida — adding up to an additional five years to the statute of limitations.
Trump lies much more often than he tells the truth. You should be more careful about where to source your cherry picked babble.
