US EditionTrump Orbit Rewarded in Year Since Criminal Conviction
- On May 30, 2024, Donald Trump observed the first anniversary of his landmark conviction for numerous felony charges related to altering business documents to hide hush money payments made before the 2016 election.
- The conviction resulted from a Manhattan jury's verdict led by District Attorney Alvin Bragg, whose prosecution was criticized for political motivations, while Trump and supporters claim persecution.
- In response, Trump directed the Justice Department to remove prosecutors involved in his cases and revoked security clearances of lawyers associated with firms representing his opponents, while some targeted firms are challenging these actions in court.
- Polling shows mixed public opinion on the conviction's fairness, with about one-third doubting judicial impartiality and 43% believing it aimed to benefit Joe Biden politically, while Trump’s base views the case as a rallying point against so-called lawfare.
- Trump is appealing the conviction and continuing his campaign against political prosecutions, supported by some congressional Republicans and advisers who argue such lawfare undermines democracy and deters public service.
