ETA 2.2. An application for an ETA must be refused where the applicant:
(a) has been convicted of a criminal offence in the UK or overseas for which they have received a custodial sentence of 12 months or more; or
(b) has been convicted of a criminal offence in the UK or overseas unless more than 12 months have passed since the date of conviction.

Since the US has never sent him to prison, and it's over 12 months since he was last convicted, he'd be let in even if he wasn't president.
