I'm trying to get my head around the transition to a Trump presidency.
Apparently he doesn't want to live full time at the White House. How is that going to work out? Isn't the POTUS sort of expected to be available 24/7 if needed? NYC is not that far from DC, but it is also not around the corner.
What is going to happen with the various lawsuits Trump is currently engaged in? He can't claim executive immunity, because they're already underway. The RICO suit is, if I'm not mistaken, a criminal charge. What if he's found guilty? Can someone take office as POTUS if they have been found guilty of criminal charges?
Is there any precedent for either of these things?
