Biden campaign hails Trump ‘hush money’ conviction: ‘No one is above the law’

President Biden’s re-election campaign touted his predecessor Donald Trump’s conviction Thursday as evidence that “no one is above the law” — while trying to raise money off what the presumptive Republican nominee charged was a prosecution to aid the incumbent.

“In New York today, we saw that no one is above the law,” campaign communications director Michael Tyler said in a statement emailed shortly after Trump was found guilty by a Manhattan jury on 34 criminal counts of concealing business records to hide evidence of hush money payments.

“Donald Trump has always mistakenly believed he would never face consequences for breaking the law for his own personal gain,” Tyler said.
