Running for president doesn't give him privilege to avoid answering for his crimes, but WINNING most definitely does.
This reminds me of a scene in the book Shogun where Blackthorne is asked something like “how could you possibly be excused for rebellion?”
“If you win”
I don’t want Trump to win! But he could probably weasel out of this mess by becoming president
What a great book!
