    If he loses, he goes to jail. He won’t be viable as a candidate between that, his age, and his obvious lost capacity.

      You really underestimate his voters

      Absolutely nothing in the constitution bars a felon or a prisoner from running for President or even holding a federal office. The Farmers believed that the electorate would be smart enough not to vote for an obvious agent of an enemy of the state.

        He won’t get to 43%+ from prison.

        Not everyone who votes for him loves him. Don’t let the 'ganda fool you. They aren’t all rabid or overly devoted.

          I can’t see any way the republicans would endorse him as candidate from prison. they are beyond cooked, but even that is too low for them
