Indeed, great damage was done today to the public’s faith in the American legal system.

If a former President can be criminally convicted over such a trivial matter – motivated by politics, rather than justice – then anyone is at risk of a similar fate.

BREAKING: Donald Trump says the "real verdict" will be decided on election day November 5th, 2024, calls out George Soros after being found guilty.

"It's okay, I'm fighting for our country... I'm fighting for our constitution."

Trump also called out President Biden, saying the trial was an attempt to interfere in the 2024 election.

Business leaders speak out about Trump guilty verdict, with one immediately donating $300K
Sequoia founder Shaun Maguire donated $300,000 on his own
By Anders Hagstrom FOXBusiness


Business leaders sounded off following former President Trump's conviction in his New York criminal trial.

Billionaire Elon Musk and other mega-weathly Americans threw their support behind Trump after the verdict came down on Thursday, with one donating $300k alone.

"I just donated $300k to Trump. I’m prepared to lose friends. Here’s why," Sequoia founder Shaun Maguire wrote in an extended post on X.

"Back in 2016 I had drunk the media Kool-Aid and was scared out of my mind about Trump. As such I donated to Hilary Clinton’s campaign and voted for her. By 2020 I was disillusioned and didn’t vote – I didn’t like either option. Now, in 2024, I believe this is one of the most important elections of my lifetime, and I’m supporting Trump," he added.

Alan Dershowitz doubts conviction will be overturned because judges are ‘terrified’ to help Trump
May 30, 2024 | Harold Hutchison

Noted attorney Alan Dershowitz said on Thursday that he doubts a New York appellate court will overturn former President Donald Trump’s conviction in his Manhattan trial.

A Manhattan jury of five women and seven men convicted Trump on 34 counts of falsification of business records Thursday after nearly 12 hours of deliberations. Dershowitz said he predicted the conviction multiple times, including in his book, “Get Trump,” before saying that he believes appellate judges will be reluctant to overturn the jury’s decision because they might be biased against the former president.

“This is a very sad day for American justice. I have now added one banana to my usual banana republic: A grouping, umm, we’re up to seven or eight at this point- and it’s a worse day for America than it actually is for Donald Trump,” Dershowitz said. “Don’t know what the impact will be on Trump. Don’t know what it’ll be on his electoral prospects, he’s probably not going to get jail time, and if he does, it would be stayed pending appeal.”

    That I believe.  At least far away back as 1963.

1960 actually. When Richard Nixon refused to present absolute proof that JFK's dad had bought the election for fear of creating a constitutional crisis.

It goes back longer than the past 8 years; Mike Johnson, Kevin McCarthy, Paul Ryan, John Boehner and Mitch McConnell with the last three being the most destructive!

Over the years I hadn't really paid attention much to the Senate Majority leader nor the Speakers .... but in recent years I sure as heck have.

Dims have succeeded in a wedge issue to insure their success this November.  I have been very vocal at TBR of my disdain for DJT.  That dislike is rooted in his imperfection as POTUS.  I thought he wasn't good at all, at fiscal matters.  OTOH, as we look across the ideological divide, we see the majority of our counterparts as worhless  pieces of human excrement who are intentionally trying to destroy the country.

Seeing this infighting within our own ranks, is greatly disheartening,  Our chances to survive under a imperfect Trump are much greater than the alternaitve.    I know the binary concept is tiring, but please give one point some thought.....    If an aligned, organized, concerted lawfare witch hunt initiative can imprison a former POTUS, what can they do to you?

Simple message is....   The democratic strategy to divide and conquer is working.  Unless, we as conservatives and sane moderates at least on a short term agree on the best interests of the country.  What's next is up to you.

Wife is starting to push for less political coverage for me due to blood pressure.  So my responses may be limited. Thanks.....

I'm not looking for a new drinking buddy! I'm looking for someone who will begin the process of cleaning out the whore's nest that now exists inside the Washington beltway!

Brace yourself.  It won’t surprise me if Judge Merchan sentences Trump to prison.

He’s a Biden donor and demonstrated bias throughout the trial.

For D activists who are convinced Trump is a threat to democracy and must be stopped, prison is where he belongs.

Don’t rule it out.

I'm not going to be as charitable as some on one point. Many are rushing to say, "Don't blame the jurors. They were led by the corrupt judge, etc." We don't need to take this position to emphasize Merchan's corruption. False choice. These jurors have a duty too -- and they failed

All the Trump supporters calling on red state DAs to criminally prosecute  democrats don’t realize their problem. Juries of ordinary citizens will not convict someone without evidence.
