Trump’s conviction will impact the path of the next elections. Joe Biden Responds to Trump’s Conviction on 34 Counts.
President Joe Biden reacted quickly to Donald Trump’s guilty verdict, urging Americans to vote to ensure the former president does not return to the White House.
Historical Verdict and Political Reactions
On Thursday, a New York jury found Donald Trump guilty of all 34 felony counts in his criminal trial over hush money payments.
This verdict marks the first time in US history that a former president has been tried and convicted in a criminal case.
However, this conviction does not legally prevent Trump from running for president again, since the Constitution does not prohibit felons from seeking public office.

Seizing the moment, Biden appealed to voters through the social network X, emphasizing that the only way to keep Trump out of the Oval Office is by voting.
“There is only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: at the ballot box. Donate to our campaign today,” the president wrote.
The Biden campaign also stressed that Trump’s guilty verdict is a clear demonstration that “no one is above the law.”
This message resonates with Democrats’ ongoing efforts to highlight Trump’s unfitness for office.

Impact of the Conviction on the Political Scene
Although Trump faces three other felony indictments, the New York case is the only one likely to reach a conclusion before the November election.
The importance of this verdict lies not only in its legal and historical implications, but also in its potential to influence public perception of Trump.
For any other candidate, a criminal conviction could mean the end of his political career.

However, Trump’s record has demonstrated remarkable resilience in the face of multiple scandals and accusations, including two impeachments, accusations of sexual abuse and investigations into possible ties to Russia and conspiracies to overturn an election.
Despite the seriousness of the allegations, voters have known the details of this case for years, and in many ways they consider these accusations less serious than others Trump faces, such as those related to subversion of democracy and mismanagement of national security secrets.

At the same time, it provides Trump with material to reinforce his narrative of being a victim of a politicized justice system.
This double-edged verdict underscores the complexity of the current political situation and the resilience of Trump’s support among his supporters.
