Trump is unlikely to wind up in an orange jumpsuit, at least not on this indictment, and probably not before November 2024, in any case.

Key Points: 
  • Trump is unlikely to wind up in an orange jumpsuit, at least not on this indictment, and probably not before November 2024, in any case.
  • Yet if he does, he would not be the first candidate to run for the White House from the Big House.
  • In the election of 1920, Eugene V. Debs, the Socialist Party presidential candidate, polled nearly a million votes without ever hitting the campaign trail.
  • By the time he was imprisoned for sedition, Eugene Victor Debs had enjoyed a lifetime of running afoul of government authority.

Representing American socialism

    • For the next 30 years, Debs was the face of socialism in America.
    • He ran for president four times, in 1900, 1904, 1908 and 1912, garnering around a million votes in the last cycle.
    • In April 1917, when America joined World War I’s bloodbath in Europe, Debs became a fierce opponent of American involvement in what he saw as a death cult orchestrated by rapacious munitions manufacturers.
    • One June 18, 1918, in an address in Canton, Ohio, he declared that American boys were “fit for something better than for cannon fodder.” In short order, he was arrested and convicted of violating the Sedition Act.

A ‘front cell’ campaign

    • Yet Debs did not let incarceration keep his message from the voters.
    • In a wry response to Harding’s “front porch” campaign style, in which the Republican candidate received visits from the front porch of his home in Marion, Ohio, the Socialist Party announced that its candidate would conduct a “front cell” campaign from Atlanta.
    • The New York Times was aghast that a felon might canvass for votes from the motion picture screen.

Public opinion turns

    • Debs was a distant third, but he had won 3.4% of the electorate – 913,693 votes.
    • Debs’ personal best showing was in the presidential election of 1912, with 6% of the vote.
    • But public opinion had turned emphatically in favor of the convict-candidate.
    • He raised his hat in one hand, his cane in the other, and waved back at them.
