Even remotely, Trump appeared before the court in New York, which today announces the sentences for the 34 offenses he faces regarding the bribery of Stormy Daniels.
Trump and his lawyer appeared online from Mar-a-Lago.
In his intervention, Trump referred to it as a dramatic experience and a setback for the state of New York and its local justice system. He also emphasized the line he had taken in all the cases he was called to account for: it is a “political witch hunt.”
“I won the elections, I won all 7 key states, I won the entire country because people see this trial,” he further stated, emphasizing: “I am absolutely innocent; I haven’t done anything wrong.”
On his side, Trump’s defense attorney stated that it was a sad day for the country and promised that Trump would appeal.
