Despite today’s events, the ultimate verdict is up to the American people on November 5th when they will have a clear choice on the future of our country.
We continue to see our legal system weaponized – in this case by a conflicted judge and a politically motivated prosecutor determined to achieve a preordained outcome.

All of you idiots on here saying that this verdict just got Trump elected don’t get it. Just like this trial, the election has already been decided. They will rig the election so that their side wins. Just like 2020. Mark my words. #RIPAmerica

I’m surprised they convicted him on all 34 counts. After 7 weeks and 2 days of deliberations, Trump is now the proud recipient of our system of Justice. pic.twitter.com/tT9KYfaZoE

The state of New York is likely handing more votes to Donald Trump.

The NYC judicial fiasco is the last straw. The whole world is laughing at us. Everyone must get out to vote making it a landslide for Trump and getting rid of the authoritarian dems.

This is about saving America! We have to fight for our Country!!! If we allow the Democrats to do this to Trump they will do this to all our establishments. It will take strong leadership to get our country back in order . Please vote this November.
