Read that if Donald Trump won for president and went to jail he could run the white house from jail. The first president to make jail the oval office! What do you think about Trump running the government from jail?!?! Could he really do this?!?!

In theory yes he could. There is no law against it. He wouldn't be able to vote for himself though if convicted.

I don't think he could do that and it is unconstitutional. I read somewhere that there is part of the constitution has where someone can't be president if they are jailed.
