He is technically convicted by a jury. It will be interesting to see how they get around that, it doesn't go away just because he was elected president, and he can't pardon himself from a state charge.

In the most left-wing jurisdiction in America by a DA that campaigned on "getting Trump", who was famous for reducing felonies to misdemeanors, but in the case of Trump raised a misdemeanor to a felony. And this was for a charge for which there was no precedent, and nor was there any victim. And the judges daughter had connections to the Democrat party too. People arent stupid.

Well, if they want to use conspiracy theories in their appeals, they are welcome to, and the Supreme court is basically in Trump's pockets, so they could always just make a "because we say so" ruling that annuls the JURY verdict.

You implied a bias with the prosecutor, judge and jury that caused a criminal conspiracy.

Just for the record...

Judge Marchand's daughter has worked for a marketing firm since 2003 that has the DNC, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as clients https://www.nationalreview.com/news/house-judiciary-investig...

Here is DA Bragg campaigning on how he will go after Trump if elected as DA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQLflgGxUrU

Bragg downgraded 50% of felonies to misdemeanors https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2023/apr/08/ron-desant...

Some discussion of the convoluted logic used by Bragg to upgrade a misdemeanor (intent to defraud) to a felony (intent to defraud in the commission of another crime) https://news.syr.edu/blog/2024/05/07/law-professor-the-manha...

This is such a lame case, that should never have been brought and is clearly an abuse of the justice system for political ends.
