OTTAWA—In 2020, incumbent American leader Donald Trump said that he wouldn’t accept the results of the presidential election if he lost. And indeed he refused, going so far as to incite an insurrection at the United States Capitol that came close to overturning Democratic President Joe Biden’s victory. That single undertaking by Trump redefined American democracy in the modern era.
In this and other cases, Trump’s indictments are driving the U.S. judicial system into totally uncharted and treacherous territory, including scenarios in which a president gets elected despite a felony conviction, a president gets elected from prison, or a president tries to pardon himself. Over the years, he has also managed to undercut the public discourse crucial to democracy with his endless lies, denunciations, racist rants, and attacks on the media.
