What happens if he’s in prison and he’s elected? He was convicted by the state of New York, can’t pardon himself. Does he exercise the office from prison?

@eurobubba I doubt the Secret Service will allow him to be in a prison. They are required to protect him and I doubt they would allow him to be housed outside of their control.

@Ron But they can’t just override the laws of the state of New York, right?

@eurobubba The Secret Service has been doing full time protection of Presidents since 1901. I think they take it pretty seriously. Trump's judge has a wide range of choices in sentencing. It has been Bragg's policy to not incarcerate for robbery or assault, but he could go extra hard on Trump.
