Guilty, guilty, guilty. Donald Trump has been found guilty as charged. Honestly, did anyone really think otherwise?
In the first-ever criminal trial of a former president, a New York jury of seven men and five women took roughly 9½ hours to find Trump guilty on 34 counts of cooking the books of his real estate company. His reason for illegally falsifying business records was to hide a hush money payment that kept his sexual encounter with adult-film actress Stormy Daniels from being revealed before the 2016 election.
