Look, we get it: felons CAN run for president because it would otherwise be a way to prevent one’s opponents from winning elections. It’s a rule that protects us against a cheap tactic.
And then it was weaponized.
That’s what Aeternum is - I think - trying to say. I think it’s the opinion that convicted felons shouldn’t get to lead the country; but those still on trial may. Still, for some, this isn’t good enough, and for me this is already too much.
Maybe carve out a rule that bars FUCKING TRAITORS stealing secrets, hiding secrets, and frustrating criminal investigation with co-conspirator help - hey, ma, look: a clear conspiracy to contravene national security! - from ever holding office. That’s so specific it’ll probably only affect Don2 and other swamp people.
