Former US President Donald Trump vowed on Friday that in case he is convicted of any of the felony charges he is currently facing, he will continue to run for the presidential race. 

This comes a day after federal prosecutors added three counts in connection with his alleged mishandling of classified documents after leaving office.

During an interview with right-wing radio host John Fredericks, Trump said there was nothing in the Constitution, stating that getting sentenced would stop his campaign. 

"And even the radical left crazies are saying not at all, that wouldn't stop (me) -- and it wouldn't stop me either. These people are sick. What they are doing is absolutely horrible," he said.

Previous presidents -- including Barack Obama and George W. Bush -- "took documents," he says, suggesting that they engaged in actions similar to the alleged crimes for which he has been charged.

"Nobody has ever gone through this. This is crazy," he added.

Trump was indicted in June over the mishandling of classified documents that contain top secret nuclear and defense information.

The 77-year-old former President is currently leading the GOP race and is likely to face President Joe Biden for a potential rematch ahead of the upcoming elections. 

However, prospects of a third party are fueling speculation that Biden may face some serious challenges as voters who dislike both Trump and Biden tend to rather be Democrats or Democratic-leaning independents.
