On Thursday, Trump, who left court, insisted that “the real verdict will come on November 5th,” when Americans will be called to the polls. “This is a fraudulent investigation. We tried to move the court to a place where we could have a fair hearing, but they refused. We tried to change the judge so he wouldn’t be biased, but they refused. No one has ever seen anything like this. All of this was orchestrated by Biden and his people. The judge was fully integrated with the White House and the Department of Justice”, he alleged in a press conference this Friday.The details of the punishment will be known only on July 11. Trump faces a maximum sentence of four years in prison, but it is unlikely that he will be sentenced to actual prison time as it is a minor offense, as he has no prior record and his advanced age (77 years). Most likely, he gets a suspended sentence and a hefty fine. The former president can appeal the sentence only after hearing it, making a definitive decision unlikely before the election.

“No one is above the law”
President Joe Biden said Friday that Trump’s conviction shows that “no one is above the law.” “Donald Trump had a chance to defend himself in court,” Biden insisted, rejecting allegations of political harassment. “There’s only one way to get Trump out of the Oval Office: through the ballot box.”
Other judgments
Trump faces three other trials: for attempting to manipulate the election, for election interference in Georgia and forgery of classified documents.
The former actress told the court that she met Trump at a golf tournament in 2006 and he invited her to dinner at his suite. Dressed in silk pyjamas, he said he remembered his daughter and told him to hit her with a magazine. When she left the bathroom, Trump was on the bed in his underwear and they had sex.
And now?
Can Trump be arrested?
This is unlikely due to his advanced age, lack of criminal record and document forgery being considered a minor offence. Fines are often imposed.
Can you appeal?
After the sentence was announced, on July 11, the former president’s lawyers had 30 days to indicate their intention to appeal and another six months to file a formal appeal. In that case, you can approach the Supreme Court.
Can you campaign and get elected?
The US Constitution does not bar a convicted person from running for and being elected President. Ultimately, Trump could be elected president despite being in prison.
Can you forgive yourself?
If elected, Trump could dismiss the two cases he was accused of in federal court (election interference and tampered documents), but he would not have the power to close the Georgia case or the Stormy Daniels case. condition.
