    Innocent until proven guilty, and ongoing criminal trials, or even convictions can’t bar someone from the presidency.

    imagine a world where Donald could just eliminate political opponents by having them arrested and put on trial just before an election. Personally, I’m a fan of democracy

      That’s what’s gonna end up happening anyway whether it’s Trump or DeSantis, or anyone sufficiently power hungry. The idea that any system we build can protect us from people like that is a fucking joke and needs to be abandoned.
