And as soon as one party or the other breaks that precedent, Pandora's Box is opened and all hell breaks loose, literally. Each time a party wins POTUS, they will pursue charges against the prior POTUS regardless because that reinforces the idea that they were "right to win the office".

Parties have traditionally tried to find candidates with reasonably higher moral character in order not to test this. At least they did until recently.

That said, they may be held accountable for crimes before they entered office or after they left office. It hasn't happened yet, but it could.

Or they  just get pardoned and no one can do anything.

Or suddenly develop a disease where they can't remember anything.
