Defiant Trump slams “rigged” trial, will appeal

Donald Trump remains defiant a day after being convicted at his criminal trial. Speaking in the lobby of Trump Tower, the former president continued to rage against the legal process that resulted in his guilty verdict — calling the trial “very unfair” and “rigged, describing Judge Marchan as “highly conflicted,” and saying his gag order is “nasty.” Trump opened his remarks by warning ”if they can do this to him, they can do it to you.” He touted a sharp increase in donations to his campaign and confirmed he would appeal his conviction on all counts.
