Trump's Conviction on Felony Counts and Reactions
Donald Trump has been convicted on all thirty-four felony counts related to falsifying business records to hide an affair with a porn star. Trump and his supporters claim it's a politically motivated attack on him, while the Biden administration has remained relatively quiet. The conviction has significant implications, potentially setting a precedent for similar cases involving Trump's behavior during and after his presidency.
