Thursday on CNN, following the announcement of a guilty verdict of former President Donald Trump on 34 counts by a Manhattan jury, CNN senior political contributor Scott Jennings predicted it would favor Republicans in the election cycle.
According to the former Bush administration official, the verdict would “massively backfire” on Democrats by galvanizing Republican support and encouraging fundraising.
“Well, if my phone and the text messages I’m receiving are any indication, every Republican in the country is matter in a wet hen,” he said. “I mean, people who are decidedly non-MAGA, not Trump fans are blowing up tonight saying this case never should have been brought, this is ridiculous charges. It was an egregious use of the criminal justice system. And I mean, I’m hearing people say I had no intention of voting for Donald Trump, and now I am. And then if you ask to Trump campaign, what’s happening?”
“You know, they literally broke their online donation portal because people were rushing to the internet to save their money in the minutes after the verdict,” Jennings added. “So I think there’s a real chance here. it’s going to massively backfire on the Democrats and helped Donald Trump.”

Broadcasters group rescinds De Niro award over Trump courthouse presser
The Hill, Dominick Mastrangelo, Thu, May 30, 2024
The National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) is pulling an award it had planned to give actor Robert De Niro after the Oscar winner made an appearance this week on behalf of the Biden campaign outside the courthouse where former President Trump’s hush money trial is taking place.
De Niro was slated to receive the NAB Leadership Foundation’s Service to America Award next Tuesday in Washington, D.C., but after his heated remarks outside the courthouse, the organization rescinded the award, a spokesperson for the group confirmed to The Hill.
“This event is proudly bipartisan, uniting those from across the political spectrum to celebrate the impactful work of local broadcasters and our partners,” the spokesperson said in a statement. “While we strongly support the right of every American to exercise free speech and participate in civic engagement, it is clear that Mr. De Niro’s recent high-profile activities will create a distraction from the philanthropic work that we were hoping to recognize. To maintain the focus on service of the award winners, Mr. De Niro will no longer be attending the event.”
“I support the work of the NAB Leadership Foundation and would like to express my appreciation and gratitude for what the Foundation has done and will continue to do for the good of us all, and I wish them well for their continued good work,” De Niro told The Hill in a statement.

De Niro, who has been a frequent critic of Trump through the years, had been scheduled to receive the NAB award, its highest individual honor, “in recognition of charitable work and public service.”

During his press conference outside the courthouse Tuesday, he tore into Trump, who is awaiting a verdict on 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal payments made to an adult film star just before the 2016 election.
“I don’t mean to scare you. No no, wait, maybe I do mean to scare you. If Trump returns to the White House, you can kiss away these freedoms that we take for granted, and elections, forget about it … He will never leave,” De Niro said.
President Biden’s campaign has since sent out multiple fundraising emails over De Niro’s press conference, which Trump blasted on his Truth Social account.
“Robert, whose movies, artistry, and brand have gone WAY DOWN IN VALUE since he entered the political arena at the request of Crooked Joe Biden, looked so pathetic and sad out there,” Trump wrote. “Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio!!!”

Is it true that the judge has already made plans to retire and go home to Columbia and live in his new estate provided by the drug cartels who have just released his relatives from their captivity? Just askin’.
from his mouth to Gods ears!
We NEED Trump elected so he can go after all these corrupt DA’s and Judges for trampling on his and our civil rights!
our side should have already been in the streets by the millions when they started imprisoning J6 protesters!
But their fraud machine overcame it.
I was reminded of the phrase:
GIVE US BRRABAS!
THE PHRASE THAT WILL LIVE IN HISTORY OF THE COMBINATION OF EVIL PEOPLE AND AN INNOCENT MAN.
THIS...is the Left leaning corrupt GANG WHO WILL LIVE FOREVER IN THE SHAME OF HAVING NO GOODNESS IN THIR SOULS.
“ The democrat thugs are turning the US into a shithole!!!!
They need to start the war NOW on preventing another STOLEN ELECTION because patriots will NOT take it laying down this time.”
The democrat and republican thugs are turning the US into a shithole!!!! There, fixed it.
People on the right side need to get their heads out of their asses. The people they’ve voted for are all in for the actions against Trump. They’re on the same team as the democrats. Yet the old codgers on this forum are stuck in their ways and will vote for these “republican” congressman who are on board with the demoncrats at every turn.

Biden is not expected to speak following the Trump verdict.
He is in Delaware for the nine-year anniversary of his son Beau Biden’s death.
White House spokesperson for investigations Ian Sams said, “We respect the rule of law, and have no additional comment” when asked for the official response to the verdict.
Meanwhile, the Biden campaign released a statement, noting that Trump will be the Republican nominee for president, despite the conviction.
“In New York today, we saw that no one is above the law,” said Biden communication director Michael Tyler.
“Donald Trump has always mistakenly believed he would never face consequences for breaking the law for his own personal gain,” he added.
Tyler also argued that Trump poses a threat to democracy, a warning that the Biden campaign has echoed for the last several months. And, he reiterated its argument that Trump’s campaign is “unhinged” and one of “revenge and retribution.”
