    The argument that could be made is that in most of the rest of the constitution, anything that involves things the president can or can’t do explicitly says “the president”, so having an extensive list of positions that could be disqualified that doesn’t mention the president by name implies that the president isn’t included.

    It’s not a good argument, and I suspect in saner times it would be pretty clear that the intent is that Trump can’t run.
