It shouldn't prevent him from running. It's should put him in prison and be disqualifying in the eyes of the electorate. It's alarming that it's hasn't.

Trump could spend 3 terms in office and would have trouble accumulating a third of the body count and geopolitical strife that the Bush admin is responsible for.

Yes agreed. I really think The Democrat campaign is missing a big opportunity to just straight up stop pointing at Trump himself as a cause of problems and point to him and the disparity in which we're living as a symptom of the Republican party's decade's long attempt to strip rights and investment in the American people in favour of enriching themselves and their friends. It will not stop if Trump loses. It's in the Democratic Party too and they would do right to acknowledge that as part of their own failings. Because the mere fact that this moronic blowhard can challenge a proper candidate is, itself, an indictment on the Democratic Party.
