NBC’s Vaughn Hillyard: Trump Will Officially Be Entering the White House as ‘a Convicted Felon’
EXCERPT:
HILLYARD: “But in that social media post, he wrote in part: ‘After spending tens of millions of dollars, wasting over six years of obsessive work that should have been spent on protecting New Yorkers from violent, rampant crime that is destroying the city and state, I was given an unconditional discharge. That result alone proves that, as all legal scholars and experts have said, there is no case. There was never a case and this whole scam fully deserves to be dismissed.’ Now, obviously, Kristen, he has the opportunity to appeal this and he has indicated that he will take this to the New York Appellate Division. To be clear, a unanimous jury back in May found him guilty on these 34 felony counts. But for the president-elect, he is now 10 days away from inauguration and he will officially be entering the White House as a convicted felon now.”
