Heute in The New York Times:

Can Trump run if he is convicted?
This is the simplest question of the bunch. The answer is yes.

The Constitution sets very few eligibility requirements for presidents. They must be at least 35 years old, be “natural born” citizens and have lived in the United States for at least 14 years.

There are no limitations based on character or criminal record. While some states prohibit felons from running for state and local office, these laws do not apply to federal offices.

Und weiter im selben Artikel:

What’s this about Trump and the 14th Amendment?

.... there’s no direct connection to criminal cases, and there is no automatic disqualification.
