    Its a messed up system that you can be a convicted felon but still run for president.

      Weirdly this might be one of the few times our criminal justice system is structured correctly. The DOJ bagging presidential candidates to prevent them running against the incumbent would be a huge problem. Of course, that would be the least of our worries if Trump became president again.

      If you couldn’t then all a ruling party/elite would need to do it find a way to criminalize their opponents.
