Trump Is OFFICIALLY A Convicted Felon

Donald Trump is officially a convicted felon. I covered this in depth earlier, but it is important to update you, the readers, to inform you that Trump is the first ever Convicted Felon President.

Steinglass continued: “Instead of preserving protecting and defending … a constitutionally established system of criminal justice … the defendant has engaged in a coordinated campaign to undermine its legitimacy."
