Donald Trump was found guilty of falsifying business records and plans to appeal the verdict after his sentencing on July 11. The charge carries a maximum sentence of four years in prison, but Trump’s public criticism during the trial could lead to a tougher penalty. Despite the conviction, Trump is still running for president in the 2024 election and faces three other criminal prosecutions. The guilty verdict prompted him to intensify deliberations on selecting a woman as his vice presidential running mate. National opinion polls show a tight race between Trump and Joe Biden, with some Republican voters expressing continued support for Trump while others are considering voting for Democrats. The verdict led to an increase in campaign donations for Trump, and some major Republican donors plan to continue supporting his campaign.
