The United States does not recognise the authority of the ICC over American citizens thanks to conservatives, though we’ll happily deport a foreigner to the ICC.

You forget one thing. Most countries implement articles IV and VII of the CPPCG, meaning they do not recognize any immunity for the crime, nor consider it a political crime. If motivated enough, they might either simply arrest a sitting US president if he or she enters the country, or even go to the length to forcibly extract him. And as I recall, there are a couple of other crimes against humanity where jurisdiction is universal and/or no immunity applies.
