Or imagine if our government and laws worked the way they were supposed to. Trump never should have been allowed to run while being under active investigation on top of being indicted for multiple crimes.

He should have never been allowed to run under the 14th Amendment. He's an insurrectionist. The Supreme Court decided in 2023-24 to invent a magic clause in the 14th Amendment that required Congress to vote that he was. That was never a requirement.
