If he is, then Trump must be convicted of the same crime.
In Trump's case, all we have is him briefly in possession of a firearm. But that's not a crime. Under US Code § 922(n):

Quote:
It shall be unlawful for any person who is under indictment for a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year to ship or transport in interstate or foreign commerce any firearm or ammunition or receive any firearm or ammunition which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.
If he actually bought a gun, he'd be on the hook.
