New York, NY – Donald Trump learned a hard lesson today – if you play with fire, you will get burned. In a historic jury verdict rendered earlier today in New York City, former president and current republican presidential candidate, Donald J. Trump, was found guilty in the first ever criminal trial of a former presenter for conspiring to influence the 2016 election.
The verdict was unanimous across all 34 felony charges. Trump is guilty of falsifying business records to cover up hush money payments made to porn star, “Stormy” Daniels, in efforts to suppress and bury any scandalous media coverage that would have tanked his 2016 bid for the White House.
The shocking verdict is a stunning victory for the prosecution and a legal awakening for Trump, as his manipulation of the tabloid press was exposed. His direct influence of media stories helped torpedo him from real estate mogul to reality star, and ultimately president of the United States.
With three more felony cases yet to be tried, the fate of Trump’s hopeful revival of being the next republican presidential nominee remains uncertain. Judge Juan Merchan has scheduled the sentencing hearing for July 11, 2024, just days before the Republican National Convention, where Trump is schedule to be nominated.
“This was done by the Biden administration;” said Trump to reporters, as he exited the Manhattan courthouse. “Our whole country is being rigged right now. We’ll keep fighting, we’ll fight to the end and we’ll win because our country’s gone to hell. We don’t have the same country anymore, we have a divided mess. The real verdict is going to be November 5 by the people.”
Trump’s classified documents trial was initially scheduled to begin May 20th, however earlier this month in Fort Pierce, Judge Aileen Cannon postponed the case indefinitely. That trial is unlikely to begin before the November 5th election date
