What has our party become? This is a disgrace to our nation. Morals and decency is out the window for selfish gains

What a crazy world where criminals can get convinced of crimes! Isn’t this America?!?

There's still hope left in this democracy. This would never have happened to Putin in Russia.

They act like they wouldn’t be dancing in the streets if the role was reversed 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

As Fox News had a level of glee on 1/6, I guess that smirk was ripped off today. And, Trump did it. End of story.

12 random fellow Americans convicted Trump. Now THAT is justice.

[jeffthompson]

Most Americans see a very wealthy person thumbing his nose at the judicial system. When the system finally works - they are happy that justice is served on someone who has been arrogant, insulting and intimidating. Turley has been wrong in the direction the jury was leaning - now he is unhappy and pretends shock that others are very happy.

Judicial system best to get to work and go after DNC for political purposes which sparked all this. In the long run President Trump will gain more votes and campaign harder.

[EASYTIGER]

How was it a "political show trial"? Trump was not on trial for his political views

[buppie]

The whole SORE LOSER thing is kind of the Trump brand. Qari Lake and others invested heavily in it.

[ragingabeproductions]

Im stoked! Its nice to see a rich white man learn that systems applies to them too

[cyn]

Not “a” former president…THIS former president. Big difference.

[omarthegreat]

34 guilty verdicts but I don’t know what he is being charged with 🤡🤡🤡

[sriranga]

By raising objections and taking out rally’s against PM’s Mount Vrat they are giving more publicity .We Sanatanis thank them for this publicity.

[randolphmoore]

Maybe you need to understand NY law. The celebration is because this trial validates the concept that no one is above the law. The judge in this case bent over backwards to ensure a fair trial. Trump pushed the envelope every day with his antics.

[McLKeith]

You didn't mind chanting "Lock her up". But now when it is Trump who is actually found guilty, you're whining.

[HelenCamile]

John, you must have been sleeping in court too. He was convicted of falsifying business records.

[cpr]

People are tired of that lecherous conman. Justice is finally catching up to him. He should drop out.
