> He can be President all day long in jail. Playing devil's advocate, at least in part... In practice, he cannot perform many of the duties of the office effectively - or perhaps at all - from jail. The Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and it says he should be President (given the outcome of the process we had). The laws that say he should be in jail are subordinate to the Constitution and so rightly lose out in the minimum way practicable - a delay in sentencing. ... I do have problems with some of what I've written here, but it seems like a sensible position that could be held unreservedly by someone who disagrees with me on a few questions of fact that do have a subjective component.
