Fox News host Tucker Carlson asked Trump if there’s anything legal that could make the 2024 Republican presidential candidate drop out of the race. “No, I’d never drop out,” Trump said. “That’s not my thing. I wouldn’t do it,” he added.

There’s nothing in the U.S. Constitution that specifies that a candidate who’s been charged or convicted cannot seek or take office.
