I like presidents who aren't convicted felons.

I like presidents who aren't corrupt octogenarians.

Yeah. Obviously if a candidate is a criminal that should invalidate them in the eyes of any sane voter, but really the bar should be a lot higher for anyone to be happy with their choice. The real motivation shouldn't be to vote for the lesser of 2 evils and call it good enough, it should be to literally fight back against corruption until we have options we actually like. Obviously it's too late for that in this election, but we should already be getting started in the fights to get someone worthwhile in the 2028 elections.
