Criminal Trials,2024 Presidential Election

The jury has convicted the ex-President of thirty-four felony counts, in a proceeding overseen by Judge Juan Merchan and featuring testimony from Stormy Daniels, Michael Cohen, and David Pecker.

The conviction on these felony charges is only the most recent stain on the legal history of the former President. Last year, in a civil trial, another New York jury found Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation, and awarded the victim of that assault, the advice columnist E. Jean Carroll, five million dollars. A subsequent suit against Trump for defaming Carroll resulted in an additional award of more than eighty-three million dollars in damages.

” And yet, as the trial entered its last days, Haley, predictably, crumbled, saying out loud that she would cast her vote for Trump and, implicitly, her integrity to the four winds. In return, Trump tossed Haley a crumb, suggesting vaguely that she might yet gain a place on his team “in some form.” Some of the titans of Wall Street are showing similar degrees of moral flexibility.
