UNDERSTANDABLY
SO SURROUNDED BY A LOT OF SECURITY
AS IS THE COURTHOUSE

CBS NEWS REPORTER ROBERT COSTA WHO WAS OUTSIDE THE COURTHOUSE
TALKED TO SOMEONE WHO WAS CLOSE TO THE FORMER PRESIDENT
SAID HE WAS EXPRESSING
HIS ANGER
HIS IS FURY ABOUT THIS VERDICT EVEN BEFORE IT WAS
READ HE WAS PREDICTED TO ASSOCIATES
THAT HE BELIEVED THAT THIS TRIAL
WAS A DISASTER
AND THAT HE WAS GOING TO FIGHT IT ALL THE
WAY
THROUGH APPEAL HE WAS ALREADY SIGNALING TO SOME OF THE
TOP REPUBLICANS IN THE COUNTRY
IN THE PAST HOUR THAT REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENED
HE WANTED THEM TO BE WITH HIM HE BELIEVED THEY
WOULD STAND WITH HIM AND HE IS REALLY
PREPARING
HIS ALLIES TELL ME JUST NOW TO FIGHT THIS ALL
THE WAY INTO USE THIS AS A POLITICAL
WEAPON
AGAINST PRESIDENT
BIDEN JUSTICE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT NOT INVOLVED IN THIS CASE THIS
IS A CASE IN LOWER MANHATTAN
THIS WAS A JURY
COMPRISED OF 12 NEW YORKERS PEOPLE WHO ARE HIS PEERS
IN HIS HOME CITY
OF NEW YORK AT THE SAME TIME
YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP CONSTANTLY
USE THIS AS A REFRAIN
THAT HE WAS TARGETED
BY THIS TRIAL
TARGETED
BY THIS PROSECUTOR
AND HE IS GOING TO USE HIS OWN CHANNELS
OF COMMUNICATION
WHETHER IT'S SOCIAL MEDIA
SOME KIND OF RALLY OR SPEECHES OR OTHER MEANS TO
GET HIS MESSAGE OUT THERE WITHOUT FACT CHECKING
AND OFTEN WITHOUT
THE BOUNDS OF NORMAL DISCOURSE
HOLDING HIM IN BUT THIS IS AMERICAN POLITICS TODAY
HE HAS HELPED TO CREATE
AND REALLY SPEARHEADED THIS ENVIRONMENT
WE ARE IN NOW BUT I KNOW FROM PEOPLE WHO
HAVE BEEN WITH HIM IN THE PAST HOUR THAT HE
IS FURIOUS AND THAT THIS IS NOT JUST SOMETHING HE'S
GOING TO LEAVE TO THE LAWYERS
HE WANTS TO BE OUT FRONT NOW AND THIS COUNTRY
IS GOING TO SEE HIM OUT FRONT ALL SUMMER
AND THIS VERDICT SENDING SHOCK WAVES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY RIGHT
NOW AND MACKOVIC JOINS ME NOW TRACKING THE LOCAL REACTION
TO THE TRUMP VERDICT
AND WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING LOCALLY AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY
SOME STRONG OPINIONS REACTION
STARTING TO COME INCLUDING FROM THE WHITE HOUSE
SO LET'S TAKE A LOOK 1ST AT THAT STATEMENT FROM
THE BIDEN HARRIS CAMPAIGN IT READS IN PART IN NEW
YORK TODAY
WE SAW THAT NO 1 IS ABOVE THE LAW DONALD
TRUMP HAS ALWAYS MISTAKENLY
BELIEVED HE WOULD NEVER FACE CONSEQUENCES
FOR BREAKING THE LAW FOR HIS OWN PERSONAL GAIN BUT
TODAY'S VERDICT DOES NOT CHANGE THE FACT
THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FACE A SIMPLE REALITY
THERE IS STILL ONLY
1 WAY TO KEEP DONALD TRUMP OUT OF THE OVAL
OFFICE
AT THE BALLOT BOX
EAST BAY CONGRESSMAN ERIC
SWALWELL SAYING ON X
DONALD TRUMP IS A CONVICTED
FELON
THIS VERDICT IS NOT A WIN FOR ANY SINGLE PERSON
HE SAYS IT'S A WIN FOR AN IDEA
THE IDEA THAT WE ALL FOLLOW THE SAME RULES THE
RULE OF LAW 1 TODAY
IN SAN FRANCISCO CITY ATTORNEY DAVID CHU SAYING TRUMP HAS
LONG DISREGARDED
THE RULE OF LAW BUT TODAY A JURY SENT A
CLEAR MESSAGE
THAT NO 1 IS ABOVE THE LAW VOTERS ACROSS THE
COUNTRY MUST WAKE UP TO THE FACT THAT TRUMP IS
A CONVICTED FELON
AND IS UNFIT
FOR OFFICE
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AISLE REPUBLICAN HOUSE SPEAKER
MIKE JOHNSON
JUST SAID THAT TODAY IS A SHAMEFUL DAY IN AMERICAN
HISTORY HE SAID DEMOCRATS CHEERED AS THEY CONVICTED
THE LEADER OF THE OPPOSING PARTY
ON RIDICULOUS
CHARGES
PREDICATED
ON THE TESTIMONY
OF A DISBARRED
CONVICTED FELON
HE ADDS THIS IS A PURELY PEOPLE POLITICAL
EXERCISE
NOT
A LEGAL 1 BUT WE ARE CONTINUING TOGETHER MORE REACTION

IN AN ATTEMPT
TO COVER UP THE ALLEGED
RELATIONSHIPS
IN THE NEW YORK
HAS SH MONEY TRIAL
AND IT WAS A MOMENT THAT WILL BE ETCHED IN
HISTORY PEOPLE EVERYWHERE HERE IN THE BAY AREA AND AROUND
THE WORLD FOR THAT MATTER ARE REACTING
TO THIS VERDICT
HERE'S WHAT SOME FOLKS SAID IN NEW YORK
TIMES SQUARE
I DON'T
KNOW WHAT TO SAY I DID NOT THINK THAT THIS
WAS ACTUALLY GOING TO HAPPEN AND
I I'M JUST CAN'T BELIEVE IT IT'S ABOUT TIME ACCOUNTABLE
FOR SOMETHING I CAN'T BELIEVE IT IT'S
AMAZING
SURPRISE
IT'S AN INCREDIBLE SURPRISE I
REALLY DIDN'T THINK HE WAS EVER GOING TO GET HELP
TO ACCOUNT FOR ANYTHING AND
THE RETURN
BURDEN
VERDICT I'M LIKE I'M STUNNED
DON'T THINK THAT'S REALLY TRUE I MEAN I DON'T KNOW
HOW THE DETAILS ABOUT HIS CASE TRULY THINK HE DIDN'T
DID IT DIDN'T DO IT
MY FAULT CREATURE CREATURE AND I
JUST WANT TO SEE THE TRUTH COME OUT AND I
JUST WANT TO SEE THE 2
STORIES INVOLVED
JOINING US NOW IS SAN JOSE STATE PROFESSOR MELINDA JACKSON
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING WITH US WE'RE HEARING
A LOT OF REACTION
A LOT OF SHOCK
THAT THESE VERDICTS CAME DOWN THE WAY THAT THEY DID
WHAT WAS YOUR REACTION
YES WELL I WAS ALSO VERY SURPRISED
THAT WE GOT A VERDICT SO QUICKLY
UM
AND I THINK THE FACT THAT IT WAS GUILTY ON
ALL 34 COUNTS AND THAT IT CAME OUT WITHIN 2
DAYS REALLY SPEAKS TO
THE STRENGTH OF OF THE CASE AGAINST
TRUMP THAT
THIS JURY
YOU KNOW IS REALLY SENDING A STRONG MESSAGE HERE
THAT THERE WAS NO DOUBT IN THEIR MINDS UM
AND
OBVIOUSLY
THE
POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS
OF THIS REMAINS TO BE SEEN
BUT
DESPITE
ALL OF TRUMP'S CLAIMS
THAT THIS WAS UNFAIR
AND HE'S BEING POLITICALLY TARGETED
IT
IS NEVER HELPFUL
FOR SOMEONE TO BE CAMPAIGNING
AS A CONVICTED FELON
THERE IS THERE'S REALLY NO UPSIDE TO THAT
AND
I THINK IT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE MINDS
OF SOME
POTENTIAL
VOTERS WHO ARE NOW GOING TO LOOK AT THIS RACE
DIFFERENTLY
IN LIGHT OF THIS VERDICT AS A SURPRISE TO NO
1 THE FORMER PRESIDENT CAME OUT SAYING THAT THIS WAS
RIGGED
AND A DISGRACE
THIS WHOLE TRIAL WAS RIGGED AND A DISGRACE
I'M CURIOUS THAT REACTION
AND THAT SORT OF FURY THAT HE IS MOST LIKELY
GOING TO TAKE WITH HIM THROUGH THE REST OF THE
CAMPAIGN
DO YOU THINK THAT IS GOING TO HELP HIM IN
THIS RACE
I DON'T THINK SO A AND
WE'VE HEARD IT BEFORE YOU KNOW HE HAS BEEN MAKING
THOSE CLAIMS FOR
UM FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS REALLY UM AND
SO
THE FACT THAT HIS MESSAGE
MAYBE
MOSTLY FOCUSED ON HIS OWN PERCEIVED
AND
TREATMENT AND VICTIMHOOD
UM
YOU KNOW THAT
THAT IS A STORY THAT UH THAT WE'VE ALL HEARD
BEFORE
AND THOSE WHO SUPPORT HIM
I
DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO CONVINCE HIM TO SUPPORT HIM
ANYMORE WHAT HE NEEDS TO BE DOING THINKING AHEAD TO
THE GENERAL ELECTION IN NOVEMBER
IS REACHING OUT TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ON THE
FENCE
WHO ARE NOT HIS DIEHARD SUPPORTERS AND TRYING TO WIN
THEIR VOTES
AND I DON'T KNOW THAT FOCUSING
UM YOU KNOW AGAIN ON HIS PERCEIVED MISTREATMENT IS GOING
TO BE A VERY EFFECTIVE CAMPAIGN STRATEGY TO REACH OUT
TO THOSE
UNDECIDED
VOTERS
AT THIS
YOU MENTIONED YOU WERE SURPRISED HOW QUICKLY THE JURY CAME
BACK WITH THEIR VERDICT
I'M CURIOUS WITH THE EVIDENCE PRESENTED
IN COURT
WHY YOU THINK THAT
IT TOOK AS SHORT OR AS LONG AS IT DID
WELL IT WAS A COMPLEX CASE IN TERMS OF YOU
KNOW THE FINANCIAL DETAILS
AND
YOU KNOW JUST SORTING THROUGH ALL OF THE
THE VARIOUS LEGAL
UM
YOU KNOW ASPECTS
OF IT UM
AND
UH
YOU KNOW YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WITH WITH A JURY
TRIAL YOU KNOW THAT IS WHY IT IS THE YOU
KNOW THE BACKBONE OF OUR LEGAL SYSTEM BECAUSE IT REALLY
DOES BRING IN
UM ORDINARY
ORDINARY
AMERICANS
TO
SIT AND LISTEN TO THE EVIDENCE AND TO
UM SIFTED
ALL THROUGH AND DISCUSS
AND
UM PARTICULARLY
AGAIN WITH WITH THE NUMBER OF COUNTS
AND THE HIGH PROFILE NATURE OF THIS CASE YOU KNOW
UM
IT WOULD NOT HAVE SURPRISED ME IF THE JURY TOOK
A LITTLE BIT LONGER
TO REALLY YOU KNOW THOROUGHLY
UM REEG
EVERYTHING
UM
THE FACT THAT IT WAS SO QUICK AND THAT
THEY ASKED FOR CLARIFICATION
ON A FEW THINGS BUT THEY HAD A UNANIMOUS DECISION
WITHIN 2 DAYS MEANS THAT
UM IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE WASN'T A LOT OF
DISAGREEMENT
AMONG THE JURY AND THAT
THE PROSECUTION
UM PROVED ITS CASE EFFECTIVELY
SENTENCING WILL BE ON JULY 11TH WHICH IS JUST A
FEW DAYS AWAY FROM THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION I'M CURIOUS
WHAT IMPACT DO YOU THINK
THAT SENTENCING
DAY WILL HAVE ON THE CONVENTION
YEAH WELL
IT'S HARD TO SAY I MEAN ALL OF THIS IS
SO UNPRECEDENTED
UM AND
UH
YOU KNOW AGAIN
IT CAN'T BE GOOD RIGHT WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE
SENTENCING
WILL HOLD WE EXPECT THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE APPEALS
AS WELL
SO
YOU KNOW THE NEXT PHASES OF THIS ARE LIKELY TO
TAKE MONTHS AND NOT BE RESOLVED BEFORE THE ELECTION
IN NOVEMBER
BUT
UM AGAIN IT IS NOT A GOOD NEWS STORY TO
BE SENTENCED
FOR A CRIMINAL
CONVICTION
YOU KNOW AT THE SAME TIME THAT YOU ARE RUNNING
FOR ANY PUBLIC OFFICE UM LET ALONE YOU KNOW THE
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES SO
I DO THINK THAT THIS WILL HAVE
A CHILLING EFFECT ON AT LEAST SOME
PEOPLE WHO MAY HAVE BEEN CONSIDERING VOTING FOR TRUMP AND
WILL NOT BE AS LIKELY TO DO THAT NOW
PROFESSOR MELINDA JACKSON THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE
YOU'RE WELCOME
BUT WE WILL HAVE CONTINUING COVERAGE OF THE TRUMP GUILTY
VERDICT IN THE HUSH MONEY TRIAL

WE ARE
CONTINUING
TO FOLLOW THIS BREAKING NEWS FORMER PREZ DON TRUMP
FOUND GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS
AND THE HUSH MONEY TRIAL IN NEW YORK MAKING HIM
THE
1ST FORMER PRESIDENT
TO EVER BE CONVICTED
OF FELONY
CRIMES
JOINING ME LIVE NOW IS SONOMA STATE POLITICAL SCIENCE PROFESSOR
DAVID MCEWAN
PROFESSOR MCEWAN THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING WITH US
YEAH IT'S A PLEASURE TO BE WITH YOU THANK YOU
FOR HAVING ME GIVE US SOME PERSPECTIVE
ON THE MAGNITUDE
OF
THIS MOMENT THIS IS THE 1ST FORMER PRESIDENT TO BE
EVER CONVICTED
OF A CRIME HOW HUGE IS THIS IN HISTORY
IT'S A BIG DEAL I MEAN LOOK THIS IS A
TECTONIC SHIFT IN OUR POLITICS
IT WAS 50 YEARS AGO
THIS AUGUST AUGUST 20TH THAT RICHARD NIXON RESIGNED THE PRESIDENCY
OF THE UNITED STATES
AND IN SOME WAYS WE'VE COME FULL CIRCLE FROM THAT
BUT THIS IS DRAMATICALLY DIFFERENT THIS ISN'T THINKING 68 OR
1974 IT'S MORE LIKE 1860S
AND
THE STAKES ARE HUGE WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE COUNTRY
IS MORE THAN DIVISIVE AND MORE MORE THAN POLARIZED
IT'S SHAKING FAITH IN INSTITUTIONS
SO RECOGNITION
OF THE RULE OF LAW
IS HUGELY IMPORTANT AND AND THAT'S 1 THING WE ELEMENT
THAT IS RELIABLE
BECAUSE LEGAL INSTITUTIONS
ARE STRONG
SO THIS HAS LEGAL ASPECTS
THE POLITICAL RAMIFICATIONS
OF THIS CASE OF TODAY
OF WHAT HAPPENS IN THE FUTURE WITH SUBSEQUENT CHARGES
OR SUBSEQUENT DEVELOPMENTS
BUYS HUGELY POLITICAL THAT REVERBERATES
ASKED
NOVEMBER 5TH AND THIS HAS HUGE CONSTITUTIONAL
IMPLICATIONS
SO THESE 3 THINGS LEGAL POLITICAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL
ARE ALL THAT'S AT STAKE AFTER TODAY'S VERDICT AND WHAT'S
GOING ON AND DONALD TRUMP IS FRONT AND CENTER AND
ALL OF THAT THAT'S JUST THE WAY HE'D ACTUALLY LIKE
TO HAVE IT
JUST CLARIFY WE KEEP CALLING US THE HUSH MONEY TRIAL
BUT TO BE CLEAR TO BE CLEAR HE WAS FOUND
GUILTY OF FALSIFYING
BUSINESS RECORDS TO COVER UP THE PAYOFF
TO A STAR
34 COUNTS
WERE YOU SURPRISED
THAT HE CAME BACK GUILTY ON
ALL 34 COUNTS THIS QUICKLY
YEAH IT'S BOTH FAST
AND THE SENSE THAT THEY AGREED
ON ALL OF THE ELEMENTS BECAUSE SOME OF THEM ARE
RELATED TO SOME OF THE CHARGES ARE RELATED TO HIS
REVOKABLE TRUST
SUMMER RELATED TO
OTHER ENTITIES AND SO IT IS A COMPLEX SET OF
BUSINESS PRACTICES
AND A COMPLEX SET
THAT WAS LAID OUT AND SO GUMMY AND COMING EVERYBODY
COMING TOGETHER TO UNDERSTAND THE MINDSET
AND DOING SO SO QUICKLY READING BACK TO TESTIMONY FOR
EXAMPLE OF UH
AND THEN AND THEN OF MICHAEL COHEN SIGNALED YESTERDAY
THAT
THINGS WERE HEADED IN THIS DIRECTION
BUT ALSO THE CALENDAR IS HUGELY IMPORTANT HERE BECAUSE YOU
KNOW WE HAVE JUNE 27TH COMING UP
WE HAVE THE REPUBLICAN
CONVENTION JUST BEFORE
JUST AFTER SENTENCING OCCURS AS YOU MENTIONED
WE HAVE ANOTHER DEBATE THE ELECTION ITSELF IS ONLY 100
58 DAYS AWAY
SO THAT MEANS DONALD TRUMP
IS GOING TO GO NEGATIVE
WAY HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO DO THIS AND HE'S
GOING TO HAVE TO ATTACK WHILE THOSE LEGAL THINGS ARE
GOING ON AND THAT MEANS EVERYONE KIND OF STRAPPING AND
GET READY
CURIOUS THAT THIS IS GOING TO REALLY CHANGE
THE CAMPAIGN
MOVING FORWARD HOW IS BIDEN GOING TO REACT TO THIS
HOW SHOULD HE REACT
YEAH I MEAN YOU SAW ELEMENTS OF THIS WITH JOE
BIDEN KAMALA
HARRIS TALKED AFRICAN TO AFRICAN AMERICAN VOTERS WHO ARE SO
CRITICAL
FOR WHAT HAPPENED I MEAN 94
OF AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN VOTED FOR JOE
BIDEN IN 2020
THEY NEED A HUGE TURNOUT OF AFRICAN AMERICAN VOTERS OVERALL
BUT THEY'VE ALSO SEEN SOME
CHANGES IN LEAKAGE LINKAGE WITH THE
LATINX VOTERS LATINOS AND LATINAS NOT JUST IN FLORIDA BUT
ACROSS THE COUNTRY
AND THEY ARE HUGELY IMPORTANT AND SO THE FOCUS FOR
THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION
REALLY NEEDS TO BE ON WINNING 3 STATES
THOSE STATES ARE PENNSYLVANIA
MICHIGAN AND WISCONSIN
THEY CAN WEATHER LOSSES IN GEORGIA ARIZONA
OR NEVADA AS A RESULT BUT THE ELEMENTS OF THOSE
2 GROUPS FOR EXAMPLE AFRICAN AMERICANS
AND LATINOS AND LATINAS
ARE HUGE FOR THE BIDEN COALITION
THEY HAVE TO REASSEMBLE THAT WHILE WE HAVE THIS UP
PEOPLE FOR WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOUNG PEOPLE DONALD TRUMP
TAPPED OUT AT ABOUT 46
OR
47
AND WE KNOW THAT THERE'S AN ELEMENT OF THE GOP
HABITUAL VOTER THAT WILL NOT VOTE FOR A CONVICTED FELON
SO WHAT DO THEY DO THEY WON'T VOTE FOR JOB
BIDEN DO THEY VOTE FOR SOMEONE LIKE RFK OR A
3RD PARTY OR DO THEY SIT OUT AND THAT'S AN
IMPORTANT ELEMENT BECAUSE 93 0 PEOPLE WHO WERE ELIGIBLE TO
VOTE IN 2016 DID NOT CAST A BALLOT
AND IF YOU'RE DONALD TRUMP YOU WANT FURTHER PEOPLE STAYING
HOME SO YOU GO NEGATIVE EARLY AND OFTEN THIS IS
THE START OF THAT BIG MOMENTUM
TO DO THAT WITH THE VOTING PUBLIC
JUST WANT TO REPEAT ONCE AGAIN SENTENCING AS IT ON
JULY 11 JUST A FEW DAYS AWAY FROM THE REPUBLICAN
NATIONAL CONVENTION
PROFESSOR DAVID MCEWAN THANK YOU SO MUCH
THANK YOU IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AND WE WILL
HAVE CONTINUING COVERAGE OF THE TRUMP GUILTY VERDICT IN THE
HUSH MONEY TRIAL
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK
Lift the clouds off of Virtual Weather only on KPIX
and Pix
I'm getting vaccinated
with Pfizer's
pneumococcal pneumonia vaccine
So am I Because I'm at risk for pneumococcal pneumonia
Come on
I already got a pneumonia vaccine
but I'm asking about the added protection
of Prevnar 20 If you're 19
or older with certain chronic conditions like asthma diabetes
COPD or heart disease or are 65
or older you are at increased risk for pneumococcal pneumonia
Prevnar 20
is approved in adults to help prevent infections from 20
strains of the bacteria that cause pneumococcal pneumonia In just
one dose
Don't get Prevnar 20
if you've had a severe allergic reaction to the vaccine
or its ingredients
Adults with weakened immune systems may have a lower response
to the vaccine
The most common side effects were pain and swelling at
the injection site muscle pain fatigue headache and joint pain
I want to be able to keep my plans
I don't want to risk ending up in the hospital
with pneumococcal pneumonia
That's why I chose
Prevnar 20 Ask
your doctor or pharmacist about the Pfizer vaccine for pneumococcal
pneumonia
LIVE PICTURES JUST OUTSIDE THE COURTROOM IN MANHATTAN THERE YOU
