Democrats, Media Hype Trump as a ‘Convicted Felon’
Democrats and the leftist media are now hyping former President Donald Trump as a convicted felon following a Manhattan jury finding him guilty on all 34 counts in his business records trial.
It did not take long for the anti-Trump world to run off with the guilty verdict, framing Trump as a convicted felon. That coincides with reports of the Biden-Harris HQ celebrating the verdict.
The New York Times editorial board released an op-ed with the title, “Donald Trump, Felon,” beginning it this way:
In a humble courtroom in Lower Manhattan on Thursday, a former president and current Republican standard-bearer was convicted of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. The jury’s decision, and the facts presented at the trial, offer yet another reminder — perhaps the starkest to date — of the many reasons Donald Trump is unfit for office.
