I know that after you leave office as POTUS it is some sort of unwritten rule that you withdraw from politics.

Why did Trump not withdraw?

Also why isn’t he a senator or congressman during Biden’s term?

    It’s not typical just for the right around here, the left does it as well. Who does it more… I would speculate they both do equally.

      Can you give an example? All the ones I’ve seen are either from the (far) right, or a direct reaction to the (far) right bucking traditional rules.

        Yes I can. One of the prime ministers we had was convicted but abolished by the president. He was in a left oriented party, the president was in the same one. He didn’t retire from politics, he went on to become our prime minister.

          Só consigo pensar num país que se enquadra nessa descrição, sem realmente tentar procurá-lo. Se eu estiver correto, você tem razão, e estou retirando todos os meus votos negativos, lol
