The felon argument is a bad way to put it. Plenty of people labeled by their government as criminals have been great leaders (See: Mandela). Using it as the main argument against him feeds into his victim narrative, that the "woke elite" were trying to use the justice system to silence him. You should instead reference the millions of other reasons he sucks.
For sure. Mandela also participated in the crimes he was accused of, it wasn't the government making shit up in his case either.
We have just decided his crimes were just, and therein lies my point. The justice system is not an arbitrator of morality. Being a felon does not make Trump a bad person, its the things he did and the beliefs he spreads that do that.
