THE DANGEROUS ROAD AHEAD FOR TRUMP: For those reading me around the world, by now you might have learned that a jury in New York City found Donald Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts for falsifying business records to cover up an alleged affair with porn actress Stormy
Daniels during the 2016 presidential election cycle.
NOTE: The jurors were unanimous in their verdict, but the case was weak and politically motivated as previous campaigns or people accused of violating election finance laws were fined, not tried or convicted. It was meant to achieve not just a conviction but to embarrass and damage Trump ahead of the 2024 presidential election on November 5. The case was so weak that I had predicted in many posts that Trump would be acquitted. Trump has, therefore, become the first former American President to be charged with a crime, tried, and convicted.
NOTE: Trump faces four years in prison or probation. New York Judge Juan Merchan will announce sentencing on July 11, just a few days before Trump is to accept the Republican Party presidential nomination and two weeks after his first presidential debate with President Biden in Atlanta on June 27.
