make a point that that number came out this morning, so it is likely gone up since then paula reid is outfront live in new york to begin our coverage. as you have been every single day of this trial, paula. and tonight, i know you re talking to your sources in the trump world and trump legal team what are you learning about what they re doing right now and through this weekend right now today over the next few days, trump will continue to confer with his legal and political advisors about what to do in the wake of this verdict. and one of the first big questions they need to address is what to do about the date of this sentencing july 11 is just a few days for the republican national convention around the time he was expected to announce his running mate, but it s mega of the sources. i m told that there are only some folks in trump world who believe no keep it on july 11th. that s a great way to go into the convention as they continue to try to paint him as a martyr. and the victim
jury did, you don t like the instructions they were given, what they were presented, but are you saying then that if you had been sitting on that jury, that you would have come to the same conclusion with the context of the rules and the evidence that was presented to you? i don t i don t answer how you have hypotheticals. i have no idea what it s like to sit in their shoes and sit in their seats all day like they did. so what i would say is that the american people should look at the facts surrounding what just happened the last six weeks and the unprecedented actions that were taken during this trial and take it for what it s worth and recognize that we need a president back in the white house that gets up every day and fights for them. and our world was much more secure then as well, look at what happened this week. what president biden and his team have been able to do to distract america with this trial. they were not just talking about this open border. the fact that president
noticeably not present the private show of support comes as trump s legal team has just weeks to file a sentencing memo and the memo is obviously crucial because it s when lawyers would make the case for a lighter sentence. in this case, of course, a jury found trump guilty on 34 criminal counts of falsifying business records. and there s uncertainty about whether the sentencing will actually happen on july 11, as it was initially scheduled by judge more merchan. trump s attorneys are weighing whether to push that sentencing back or whether to try to push it back. right. they ve got to get a request and see if that would pass so this is what they re debating behind closed doors. of course, in public, trump is trying to appear defiant. nearly nine years to the day today. he returned to the lobby of trump tower down that escalator. she was upstairs. she did not come with him and he came down and raged, slamming the case that has now made him a convicted felon it was a rigged tr
really is a day of hope because i see president trump s still willing to stand up and fight for our freedom. he said today, he wanted to fight to continue to protect our constitution. that s the foundation of american and to have someone who can get so attacked and try to be destroyed by they want to destroy him and his family. i think everybody who had a part in this trial is gonna go down in history as being a part of trying to take down america and a man who is trying to protect it. so i want to show you, call it a sham trial i m curious what your thoughts are next week a hunter biden s on trial in a case bought and brought by joe biden s department of justice is that a sham trial? two no, i think it was interesting about the trial with president trump is that we had a judge that obviously i had donated to president biden before when he is requirements by new york ethics rules said that he had to recuse himself and that type of situation he did not. instead, he s still preside
where we could have a fair trial. we didn t get it. we wanted a judge change. we wanted to judge. it wasn t conflicted and obviously he didn t do that this afternoon for the first time, right? it s taken now, 24 hours since the verdict president biden is speaking out. here s what he s saying. reckless. is dangerous. it s irresponsible for anyone to say this was rigged just because they don t like the verdict i ll trump of course, does not like the verdict, but it is actually paying off for him right now, trump campaign putting out a new video tonight featuring his allies all have been flooding the airwaves today to cry foul according to the campaign, they ve now raised about $35 million since the verdict was handed down. i want to note that s just small donors and i also so we ll make a point that that number came out this morning, so it is likely gone up since then paula reid is out front live in new york to begin our coverage. as you have been every single day
