Donald Trump became the first American president to be a convicted felon after he was found guilty on all 34 counts in his New York hush-money trial on Thursday. Trump was charged with falsifying business records to cover up payments made to an adult film star ahead of the 2016 presidential election. He will be sentenced on July 11, a week before he is set to officially become the Republican presidential nominee at the party’s national convention. Some legal experts say it’s unlikely he’ll face prison time, but the case is unprecedented, and the judge has wide discretion.
Trump has cast himself as a martyr facing unfair persecution, and though polls have suggested a fifth of his supporters would reconsider or withdraw support if he is convicted, his base has “proved fiercely loyal to their favored candidate, felon or not,” The Los Angeles Times’ Washington columnist wrote. “That, too is a strange historic first: a presidential candidate convicted of felonies, but suffering little if any political damage in the process.”
