Is it true that he can still run for the office even if he’s in jail?

Eugene V. Debs ran for president in 1920 while he was serving time for “sedition”(he had been making anti-war and anti-draft speeches during World War I). It’s certainly possible, though incredibly doubtful he’d win. I find that I can’t really count anything out when it comes to Trump, though.
The biggest threat to Trump if he does go to jail is he will lose airtime and will be up to his merry band of lickspittles to try to drum up interest, and interesting they are not.
He can spend the time (ghost) writing his book about how unfair the fake news media is toward him. He could literally title it “My Struggle” and his base still wouldn’t get it.
