[Regnum] In the United States, political rivals are actually being eliminated, said Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov on May 31, responding to a request from journalists to comment on the guilty verdict against former US President Donald Trump.

“If we talk about Trump, it’s obvious that they are simply essentially eliminating political rivals by all possible legal and illegal means,” he said.

Peskov stressed that the current situation in the United States is visible to the whole world. He also recalled that the court has not yet announced the final verdict.

As Regnum reported, on May 30, a jury in New York returned a guilty verdict against Trump in the case of falsifying financial records of the Trump Organization to pay $130 thousand to former porn actress Stormy Daniels. Previously in US history, ex-presidents had never been found guilty in a criminal case.

The verdict has not yet been pronounced; the former American leader faces 136 years in prison.

Tarmp described himself as a political prisoner and said he had done nothing wrong. He also promised to never give up. His campaign headquarters announced a fundraiser to help the politician win the upcoming presidential election. Trump's conviction does not prohibit him from participating in them.

Trump declared himself a political prisoner and said he would never surrender
Former US President Donald Trump declared himself a political prisoner after the jury's guilty verdict in the case of falsifying financial records. The politician posted a corresponding statement on May 30 on his campaign website, Politico reports.

“I was just found guilty in a rigged trial that is a political witch hunt: I did nothing wrong!” - the publication states.

Trump also declares that he will “never give up,” and the election campaign headquarters invites those who want to help the Republican politician win the presidential election by donating any amount of money.

At the same time, the election campaign website automatically began redirecting users to the fundraising page for the election campaign. It is noted that due to the influx of visitors, after some time the site stopped loading.

Earlier, IA Regnum reported that the jury convicted Trump on all 34 counts brought against him in the case of forgery of business records. The final verdict in the case will be pronounced on July 11. The maximum possible punishment for the totality of charges brought against the politician is 136 years in prison.

Trump, who was awaiting the jury's verdict outside the courtroom, in a conversation with reporters called the decision a "disgrace" and the trial itself "rigged" and promised to challenge the verdict.

In turn, American journalist Tucker Carlson called Trump's guilty verdict the end of “the fairest justice system in the world.” According to the journalist, Trump will win the election unless he is killed first.

Tucker Carlson called Trump's guilty verdict the end of justice in the United States
The jury's guilty verdict for the former head of the White House and likely Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump was called the end of justice in the United States by American journalist Tucker Carlson on May 30 on the social network X.

According to Carlson, the jury's guilty verdict against Trump is the end of "the fairest justice system in the world." At the same time, the journalist believes that Trump will achieve his goal, regardless of the court’s decision.

“This will not stop Trump, he will win the election if he is not killed first. Anyone who defends this sentence is a threat to you and your family,” wrote Carlson, who is a supporter of the Republican politician.

Earlier, IA Regnum reported that former US President Trump was found guilty in the case of forgery of financial records of the Trump Organization when paying money to former porn actress Stormy Daniels. The jury found Trump guilty of all 34 counts brought against him.

The politician did not agree with the court's decision and called it a “shame.” Trump has the right to appeal the decision, but he is not deprived of the right to participate in the US presidential election as a candidate.

The verdict in the Trump case will be announced on July 11. The maximum possible punishment for the totality of charges brought against the politician could be up to 136 years in prison. Trump became the first ex-president in US history to be found guilty of a criminal offense.

#3  That's good.

They don't understand and don't care to, how many people screwed by the current legal system are, how does the DIE+ people put it, "I feel I'm being seen."

So go ahead Yuan Merchant, Bragg Albert, Bobbin de Nero, stick those trumpets in your butt and blow heralds, turn Trump into Mandela with your circus ways.

Do your Darth Brandon meme attempts. I've seen a bag of potatoes scarier than that. I don't mean the forgotten bag with sprouted eyes, oh no, I mean the one tagged at the cash register.

#1  If I was judge Merchant, I'd be very worried right now. His assassination - made look like a conservative job - would benefit the Deep State in re-electing their figurehead Biden.
