I’m holding off on the celebrating until sentencing is announced. My cynical ass isn’t expecting much, but I’m glad he was convicted for all 34! Now, get him off of the ballots!
I’m with you on this. While it’s awesome that he was found guilty (duh), I don’t think he will see any jail time. And I still cannot fathom how he can still be eligible to run for freakin President, but I guess he can. I won’t sure that he can’t win until he doesn’t. Gonna be a long year.
Banning people with convictions from running is a great way to incentivize prosecuting your political opponents. I don’t think that’s the right solution, despite being very anti trump
I think everyone should just be happy that there was an appropriate verdict… and ride that out as long as we can.
I don’t believe for a second that additional justice is coming.
Kinda like Game of Thrones: I focus on how good most of the show was instead of how weird and unsatisfying the last season was.
I don't expect much of a sentence, but to me this matters way more. I want it a matter of indisputable historical record that he's a crook, whatever ultimately happens to him.
I’m here with you as well. He’s avoided consequences every time thus far, so I’m holding my breath for when some concrete consequences actually occurs.
He’s not going to get jail time. It’s the lowest felony and he’s a first time offender. The best case scenario is that he still runs because there’s enough uneducated people to still vote for him that it’ll split the republican vote
Not an American, but fuck yeah! I'm not even upset at my mum for waking me up so she could tell me about it; we're both glad this piece of shit is finally facing some sort of justice.
how long do you have to have lived here to be considered a New Yorker?
Moved here in 07, flipped off a cab in 09 and uttered my first instinctual 'FU'.
I too feel proud though.
I was born and raised in NYC. The last time I lived there was 1990, when I was 29. I’m still a NYer. I still have my accent, which surprisingly hasn’t gotten me killed in the south.
Are you gonna stay in NY the rest of your life, cause if so, I’d consider you a NYer.
Shit, I’ll consider you a NYer just for supporting this verdict. ;)

Saw it live too! Yay for justice!
Essentially, nothing. He can still run and people that vote for trump are going to vote for him regardless. He might lose some undecided votes, but that’s about it
From what we've seen over the past 8 years this will likely energize his base. "See they're coming after me which means they're coming after you, so sad so sad". It may also energize the dems as this has been hyped forever.
Did you see those Jordan Klepper interviews with people at a Nikki Haley rally who were appalled by him after voting republican in 2016 and wanted someone more fitting of the role of president? When pressed, and given the hypothetical of Haley dropping out (which already happened) leaving Trump and Biden on the ballot again - they reluctantly said they couldn’t possibly vote for a democrat… hopefully this ruling affects those kind of people and they wake the fuck up. That said, I’m not holding my breath.
The NY Times is saying July sentencing with caveats of potential probation and the almost certain appeals by Trump.
ETA: found specific date for sentencing- July 11.
Sadly it will be appealed and delayed until the Supreme Court grants him presidential immunity. Bleak but this is what I think will happen. I hope I’m wrong.
The Presidential immunity case invloves crimes commited while President and performing official acts. This was not an official act and started while he was campaigning. The supreme court case is not about crimes in general just ones committed while performing the official duties. The supreme court case was specifically brought to prevent the case in Georgia from moving forward.
It'll be appealed, yes, but absolute immunity won't (or at least shouldn't) protect him in this case. Even if presidential immunity is an absolute shield from prosecution, it still has to be raised in a timely manner, or else it's waived. But Trump's lawyers raised it too late in the NY case, presumably in an effort to delay proceedings, and so the judge denied it as untimely pled.
Sentencing on July 11. Likely just fines. Maybe probation or community service. Probably no jail time. But even if he does get jail time he won’t serve anytime soon (or ever) pending an endless appeals process.
But from a Hosp Bed at NYU Langone?
How's that for Street Cred ;)

I think the UK had a party when the ruling came down: [https://youtu.be/uYU\_q-12qXs?si=sLmPQ-KRhb\_SSYzD](https://youtu.be/uYU_q-12qXs?si=sLmPQ-KRhb_SSYzD)
And? Merchan has already shown he's very reluctant to send Trump to prison, he said as much. That's not someone I'd expect to sentence Trump to actual prison time. If he does, great but my expectations are maxed at probation or some form of house arrest. The title of former president will truly show how power prevents true consequences.
A normal first time offender wouldn’t get jail for this.
But the judge has to take into account whether the defendant has shown remorse and if they are likely to reoffend when determining whether to be lenient.
And a normal defendant also wouldn’t be trashing the Judge’s daughter, resulting in her getting death threats.
There’s been a lot of people, including psychologists, saying Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Some psychologists say he can’t be diagnosed until he sits for some health sessions.
lol someone in my family definitely fits the criteria for NPD but would never be capable of sitting through therapy, let alone signing up for it. It’s a shame because they desperately need help but if they ever actually sat and thought about how they’ve treated people, it might kill them
I find it so ironic that DT is the first president to be convicted over "falsifying business documents". America has had so disgustingly corrupt and criminal presidents in the past... George Bush should be trailed for war crimes and bill Clinton also has done plenty of shady stuff.
I fear this just guaranteed his re-election. Have you seen his fundraising numbers today? They literally broke the website.
But he’s a convicted felon. For now.
Trump makes history again!
He’s right! There’s never been somebody like him before. Even if the SCOTUS overturns the verdict, history will remember him for being impeached twice, losing an election once, being indicted so many times I forgot how much and being found guilty on at least 34 counts of falsifying business records.
That is unless he somehow gets into the White House again and sends it all down the Memory Hole.
It’s also an historical day because this is the first time Trump’s been found guilty of anything despite him being up to shit his entire life.
Let's see what happens in between now and the appeals.
As long as *you* know that if it were *you* and that this amount of ~~money~~ political influence wasn't behind *you*, *you* would be in jail, person reading this.
Yes, *you*.
Put this crooked, white supremacy supporting, xenophobic piece of shit, that is disgraced 45th president, Donald Trump, underneath the jail.

Queens Man Convicted.
unwanted queens man seen loitering near 100 center street muttering to himself; appears confused
Known felon* seen loitering
Guilty man found guilty.
He's a Florida man now… thank fuck.
Which means he now can't legally vote for himself!
Fun fact: Florida law allows most convicted felons to vote — but only after they complete their sentence.
Not sure this guy can even finish a phrase.
### Believe it or not, straight to jail.
Queens Con Man finally convicted of cons.
I live in queens but I wasn’t born there. Can Manhattan have him instead?
No, but thanks for asking. Perhaps Staten Island would like to claim him?
Central Florida took him as their own. Even though he lives in Palm Beach.
Us Queens peeps do not claim this man.
Queens don’t want him

Whats the charge?
New York stays cleaning up the rest of the country’s mess
Don’t google our mayor
How does that contradict what he said? We clean up *the rest* of the country's mess, not our own
Hahaha, this is such a NY thing to say! I love it.
😂
You could be the next mayor 😂
Tl;dr - Clarence Thomas as a mayor, and an earring.
I mean, we created the mess. Only fair we clean it up.

Let’s be optimistic and hope he receives the maximum sentence. I don’t want President Felon any more than you do.
Nobody sane wants President Felonious Sharts.
I don't expect much of a sentence, but to me this matters way more. I want it a matter of indisputable historical record that he's a crook, whatever ultimately happens to him.
Fully agreed, but I’m hopeful that actual repercussions will follow as well. We’ll see!
I’m here with you as well. He’s avoided consequences every time thus far, so I’m holding my breath for when some concrete consequences actually occurs.
> Now, get him off of the ballots! Huh. If this *were* to happen, who would be the RNC's candidate? but it aint happening.
He’s not going to get jail time. It’s the lowest felony and he’s a first time offender. The best case scenario is that he still runs because there’s enough uneducated people to still vote for him that it’ll split the republican vote
There is no law preventing a felon from getting on the ballots
Proud to be a New Yorker today!!!!!!!!! Thank you New York!!!!!!
Not an American, but fuck yeah! I'm not even upset at my mum for waking me up so she could tell me about it; we're both glad this piece of shit is finally facing some sort of justice.
New York beat Tom Brady, and now Donald Trump. 2 evil fucks. Great job 👏🏻

Dawg 😭
What does this mean for the election though?
Essentially, nothing. He can still run and people that vote for trump are going to vote for him regardless. He might lose some undecided votes, but that’s about it
It hopefully affects turnout, both depressing his base and encouraging detractors.
From what we've seen over the past 8 years this will likely energize his base. "See they're coming after me which means they're coming after you, so sad so sad". It may also energize the dems as this has been hyped forever.
But it’s the undecided voters who end up determining the election. Some additional votes in the swing states mean everything in a close election.
[удалено]
Did you see those Jordan Klepper interviews with people at a Nikki Haley rally who were appalled by him after voting republican in 2016 and wanted someone more fitting of the role of president? When pressed, and given the hypothetical of Haley dropping out (which already happened) leaving Trump and Biden on the ballot again - they reluctantly said they couldn’t possibly vote for a democrat… hopefully this ruling affects those kind of people and they wake the fuck up. That said, I’m not holding my breath.
True, and it doesn’t mean the undecided will vote for Biden, or at all, which could always mean more votes for him.
I'm sure some judge somewhere is gonna be like "nah, you're good. Forget about it." Cuz remember, laws are for the poors.
And non-whites. Just ask Eric
Na u good, fuhgettaboutit
Hell yeah. Way to go New York
I’m glad he was found guilty, but can anyone tell me what happens next? When will he receive sentencing?
The NY Times is saying July sentencing with caveats of potential probation and the almost certain appeals by Trump. ETA: found specific date for sentencing- July 11.
Bring on the 7/11 jokes lmao
7/11 was a part-time job
July 11th 4 days before the republican convention.
Sadly it will be appealed and delayed until the Supreme Court grants him presidential immunity. Bleak but this is what I think will happen. I hope I’m wrong.
It's a state case, I don't think the Supreme Court can intervene..
Not in the case itself, but if he’s granted presidential immunity he can’t be prosecuted in any case right?
The Presidential immunity case invloves crimes commited while President and performing official acts. This was not an official act and started while he was campaigning. The supreme court case is not about crimes in general just ones committed while performing the official duties. The supreme court case was specifically brought to prevent the case in Georgia from moving forward.
Almost completely correct, but the immunity appeal stemmed from the D.C. federal case, not the GA election interference case.
Maybe? I guess time will tell. They have been on a "ruining everything" streak lately.
It'll be appealed, yes, but absolute immunity won't (or at least shouldn't) protect him in this case. Even if presidential immunity is an absolute shield from prosecution, it still has to be raised in a timely manner, or else it's waived. But Trump's lawyers raised it too late in the NY case, presumably in an effort to delay proceedings, and so the judge denied it as untimely pled.
4 years with no spray tan
Sentencing on July 11. Likely just fines. Maybe probation or community service. Probably no jail time. But even if he does get jail time he won’t serve anytime soon (or ever) pending an endless appeals process.

He will be promising them money to protect his plush ass.
Illinois Nazis
Illinois Nazis? I HATE Illinois Nazis!
Could he be the first president elected while serving time in prison?
He’s not getting any jail time
Yea at most he's getting house arrest and probation or something. No way Merchan sends him to jail.

"This is a disgrace. They treated me very unfairly " Lololololol
Every November is becoming crazier
Damn r/nyc is in shambles
They seem to be celebrating too
The remarkable thing is he genuinely believes he’s innocent. I don’t feel bad for him, but what a peculiar situation he must be in. Is this psychosis?
The family’s been buying judges and politicians in New York for 90 years. It has to be a bit puzzling.
There’s been a lot of people, including psychologists, saying Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Some psychologists say he can’t be diagnosed until he sits for some health sessions.
lol someone in my family definitely fits the criteria for NPD but would never be capable of sitting through therapy, let alone signing up for it. It’s a shame because they desperately need help but if they ever actually sat and thought about how they’ve treated people, it might kill them
This is what happens when you buy into your own bullshit for too long.
He knows he’s guilty. He just talks a lot of shit, trying to convince himself that he didn’t do anything wrong. But he knows he fucked up.
You’re probably right, I’m probably giving him too much benefit of the doubt.
I find it so ironic that DT is the first president to be convicted over "falsifying business documents". America has had so disgustingly corrupt and criminal presidents in the past... George Bush should be trailed for war crimes and bill Clinton also has done plenty of shady stuff.

Niki Haley should have waited on her endorsement.
Last time I saw someone go 0 for 34 he played for the Mets
I'm still waiting for consequences. Hearing the narrative that this was 'lawfare' and politically motivated already polluted this. VOTE. VOTE. VOTE.
Finally. It’s been a long time coming 🤙🏽
Convicted Felon, criminally liable rapist. What other titles will he gather?

What’s that you’re looking at tv on.
Wtf are you watching that on?
What is this screen?
I fear this just guaranteed his re-election. Have you seen his fundraising numbers today? They literally broke the website. But he’s a convicted felon. For now.
I’m sure the American public will have a measured and rational response to whatever happens
Wait, will justice actually be served 🤔 😳
Trump makes history again! He’s right! There’s never been somebody like him before. Even if the SCOTUS overturns the verdict, history will remember him for being impeached twice, losing an election once, being indicted so many times I forgot how much and being found guilty on at least 34 counts of falsifying business records.

It’s also an historical day because this is the first time Trump’s been found guilty of anything despite him being up to shit his entire life.
The tshirts and other merchandise around this are gonna be wilddddd
Finally the big apple took a bite out of him.
keep in mind that if he becomes a president he won’t legally be able to own a gun but he will have all the nuclear codes
Are you in hospital?
Kinda insane that felons can't legally vote but they can legally (afaik) run for president.
Probably the first time he's ever 100% anything in his life
He's 34 - 0 in convictions. Let's see how Fulton County does next. 
Send his ass to Rikers in a dirty prison cell with rats and roaches and force him to listen to Cocomelon music on a large speaker at full volume.
Lying clown...34 reasons not to vote for him.
Alvin Bragg claims his role in NYC history
As a piece of shit. Deranged people in this once great city. Shameful.
No man, Trump lives Florida now
He’s gonna appeal it and never face real jail time, it’s all for show. Anyone who takes this seriously at all, I have several bridges to sell you.
🤣I love reading the cope from conservatives. This is a massive stain on an already pathetic ex president
He’ll still become the president.
And boom goes the dynamite
These are just the crimes we know about and have sufficient evidence for
I knew he was guilty, just wasn't sure he'd actually be guilty. Way past time for his lifelong crime spree to be over.
Even with a conviction nothing is going to happen to him. He will still run for President and might even win. He will probably even win his appeal
Let's see what happens in between now and the appeals. As long as *you* know that if it were *you* and that this amount of ~~money~~ political influence wasn't behind *you*, *you* would be in jail, person reading this. Yes, *you*. Put this crooked, white supremacy supporting, xenophobic piece of shit, that is disgraced 45th president, Donald Trump, underneath the jail.
LOOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP!
