NEW YORK (AP) — A day after a New York jury delivered a historic guilty verdict in Donald Trump's criminal hush money trial, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee will likely look to cast the conviction and his campaign in a new light.
The former president is expected to hold a news conference at Trump Tower late Friday morning.
Following his conviction on Thursday, Trump angrily denounced the trial as a “disgrace,” telling reporters he was an “innocent man.”
His supporters were quick to echo those sentiments while many of his critics — political and otherwise — applauded the verdict.
