Original Note:
Federal law doen't exclude all persons convicted of a felony. The crime must be one that classifies the person as a "prohibited person." The OP claims that a "felon" can't possess firearms when the law, 18 USC 922(g), states "a fugitive from justice", which Donal Trump is not. https://www.atf.gov/firearms/qa/are-there-persons-who-cannot-legally-receive-or-possess-firearms-andor-ammunition
