Donald Trump convicted on 34 felony counts for falsifying business records in historic Manhattan hush money case

Donald Trump became the first former US president to be convicted of felony criminal charges Thursday.

The real estate mogul, former commander-in-chief and presumptive Republican 2024 presidential nominee was found guilty on all counts Thursday by a jury of 12 Manhattanites in the unprecedented criminal prosecution of an ex-president.

The bombshell verdict was read in Manhattan Supreme Court just after 5 p.m. following nearly 12 hours of deliberations spread over two days — and a seven-week trial that saw X-rated testimony from porn star Stormy Daniels and Trump’s former “fixer” Michael Cohen take the stand against him.

“Guilty,” the jury foreman said calmly on the first count — before repeating the word 33 more times.
