Guilty but unashamed, Trump says he will see Biden in November

Donald Trump is guilty, but not ashamed. The question now is whether he will suffer politically for his crimes.

WASHINGTON — Donald Trump is guilty but not ashamed. The question now is whether he will suffer politically for his crimes.

The first former American president convicted at trial — found guilty Thursday on all 34 counts of scheming to help his 2016 campaign by covering up an alleged sexual encounter — Trump rallied quickly to raise money and votes from the verdict.

He blasted out a fundraising message to donors just minutes after the jury finished its work, and he vowed in the courthouse that "the real verdict is going to be Nov. 5 by the people" when he faces President Joe Biden in a rematch of their 2020 election.

Biden agreed.

"There’s only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: At the ballot box," he said in a statement posted to X along with a link to donate to his campaign. He took no victory lap, uttered no insult and offered no prediction of Trump's political demise.
