A Manhattan jury finds Donald Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to the hush money payment to Stormy Daniels. The verdict makes Trump the first former US president convicted of a crime. The jury deliberates for two days before reaching a unanimous verdict. Trump calls the trial "rigged" and "a disgrace." The conviction does not bar him from continuing his presidential campaign, and it becomes a central rallying cry — Trump frames himself as a martyr persecuted by a "corrupt" justice system.
