Dr. Phil Declares Trump's Conviction A 'Judicial Travesty,' Set To Release Exclusive Interview

On Thursday evening, popular talk show host Dr. Phil McGraw will release his unprecedented interview with presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump following his conviction by a Manhattan jury in the hush money case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D). The interview will air on Merit Street.

"This weaponization of our great institutions — the FBI, Justice Department, and individual state similar institutions — will lead to one of two outcomes," McGraw said. "One is more of the same from the other side, tit-for-tat. That may seem deserved, but that is not the right way for America to move forward. The other is what I call on you to demand from your politicians today: an end to this craziness in order to save the soul and sanity of our country."

"We need our Justice Department to return to the business of meting out justice and not running the political agendas of those currently in power, blindly seeking convictions, warranted or otherwise, and attacking political opponents," he said, adding that Americans need to forgive the other side. "We are not some banana republic, for God's sake."

"This is so not just about Donald Trump. If you let your hatred for Donald Trump compromise your ability to find true North on your moral compass, shame on you," he continued. "If you let your disgust for Biden make you blind to the inevitable consequences of pursuing revenge, then God help the children who will inherit the dystopian nightmare we create."

As previously reported by the DC Enquier, the jury found Trump guilty on each of the 34 counts of falsifying business records. Following the verdict, Trump told the press that he would continue to fight in the courts to achieve justice and continued to say that the trial against him was election interference. Judge Juan Merchan scheduled Trump's sentencing hearing for July 11th, just days before the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Dr. Phil's upcoming interview with Trump will be eye-opening for the millions of Americans who regularly tune in to his programs, many of whom are not politically involved. Following the one-on-one interview, McGraw will hold a live town hall with his Dallas audience to discuss the interview and the future of American politics.
