On Thursday, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, Donald J. Trump, was found guilty on all counts by the 12-person New York jury in the business fraud case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D). Following the verdict, several of Trump's allies condemned the jury's finding and asserted his innocence.
"Today is a dark day for America," Rep. Lance Gooden (R-TX) wrote. "This farce of a verdict stems from a Democratic jury, a Democratic prosecutor, and a Democratic judge. The American people know that the Biden Trial was a sham from start to finish, and voters will deliver the only verdict that matters in November."
Trump's former Republican rival, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), slammed the prosecution for abusing the law against Trump. "Today’s verdict represents the culmination of a legal process that has been bent to the political will of the actors involved: a leftist prosecutor, a partisan judge and a jury reflective of one of the most liberal enclaves in America—all in an effort to 'get' Donald Trump," the Florida governor explained.
"That this case—involving alleged misdemeanor business records violations from nearly a decade ago—was even brought is a testament to the political debasement of the justice system in places like New York City. This is especially true considering this same district attorney routinely excuses criminal conduct in a way that has endangered law-abiding citizens in his jurisdiction," he wrote. "It is often said that no one is above the law, but it is also true that no one is below the law. If the defendant were not Donald Trump, this case would never have been brought, the judge would have never issued similar rulings, and the jury would have never returned a guilty verdict. In America, the rule of law should be applied in a dispassionate, even-handed manner, not become captive to the political agenda of some kangaroo court."
"President Trump will NEVER be stopped. Alvin Bragg is a rouge Democrat prosecutor who should be impeached," congressional candidate Brandon Gill (R-TX) wrote. "This is wrong, and a sad day for America. President Trump is innocent."
