Eugene V. Debs ran for president from prison. There’s nothing in the Constitution that says you can’t. Ironically, though, you won’t be allowed to vote.
In a functioning democracy, a person like Trump would never stand a chance after his first term, never mind the evidence of his criminality.
Our democracy is broken from too many uneducated people who need someone else to tell them what to think about a topic. The cult of personality relies on emotional appeals instead of fact base reason.
I think it’s so you can’t get your political rivals arrested to prevent them from running against you. Kinda like Lula in Brazil. I think it makes sense, even if it feels shitty right now. Congress could still do something about it, but good luck getting more than a handful of Republicans to hit their party’s self destruct button.
Listened to a podcast which said he can still run for the presidency though. WTF ?
