A New York jury has convicted former President Donald Trump on charges he falsified business records to cover up an alleged affair. Texans have stepped forward to denounce the trial and the verdict.
This was a sham show trial. The Kangaroo Court will never stand on appeal.
Americans deserve better than a sitting U.S. President weaponizing our justice system against a political opponent— all to win an election.
We must FIRE Joe Biden in November.

Today's guilty verdict against President Trump is an absolute travesty of our judicial system.
There was no crime, and the prosecution's star witness was a convicted liar and an admitted thief.
The judge was biased against President Trump throughout the entire trial. This…

From the beginning of this sham trial, I stood by President Trump, and my support for him is stronger than ever. As Attorney General of Texas, I will unleash every tool at my disposal to fight this blatant corruption and political persecution spewing from New York and the Biden…

A deeply disturbing day for our nation, but I have every faith in the American people and @realdonaldtrump. This moment will echo through history and history will not be kind to the perpetrators and cheerleaders of this unparalleled sham.

Everyone should fear the weaponization of the justice system. These Democrat-led kangaroo courts will stop at nothing to disparage President Trump and prevent him from winning another presidential election at all costs!
This proves more than ever we need President Trump to…

WELCOME TO THE SOVIET UNION!!!!!
This country will NEVER be the same again! A TRULY SAD and PATHETIC day for America. This verdict is an ABSOLUTE DISASTER for ALL Americans!!
UNBELIEVABLE!! Biden and the radical left WEAPONIZED the “justice system” in NYC to keep President…

President Trump will NEVER be stopped.
Alvin Bragg is a rouge Democrat prosecutor who should be impeached.
This is wrong, and a sad day for America.
President Trump is innocent.
— Brandon Gill (@realBrandonGill) May 30, 2024
This verdict is a disgrace, and this trial should have never happened. Now more than ever, we need to rally around @realdonaldtrump, take back the White House and Senate, and get this country back on track. The real verdict will be Election Day.

A sham NY trial and verdict. Biden can’t win and Democrats know it. This will not stand. Americans won’t allow it. #txlege

Pray for our country and for President Trump. I fear we’re witnessing the opening of a Pandora’s Box that will never be undone.
Republican leaders — if ever a time to step up, it’s now.
— Congressman Michael Cloud (@RepCloudTX) May 30, 2024
Today is one of the darkest days in the history of our country.
I don’t know if our country can ever recover from the abuse of this government on President Donald Trump.
I hope the American people will see through this and do the right thing for the future of our country, as…
— Congressman Troy E. Nehls (@RepTroyNehls) May 30, 2024
The New York prosecution of Trump is really about you. Your right to pursue happiness & America’s greatness depend on the rule of law. It’s why migrants come, capital flows, & why we’ve survived past political conflict. Progressive Democrats are at war with the rule of law: 1) A…

BREAKING NEWS: Trump declared GUILTY by corrupt judge on sham trial. Thank you judge for guaranteeing @realDonaldTrump is elected as 47th President.
— Bo French (@Bo_French_TX) May 30, 2024
Today’s kangaroo court verdict shows just how far Democrats will go to destroy those they simply disagree with. As Biden continues to weaponize the justice system against his political opponents we must draw a line in the sand. Everything they are doing to President Trump, they…

I had never heard the term #lawfare until recently. Now I have seen it firsthand. What happened today to @realDonaldTrump is beyond comprehension and shows a serious flaw in our criminal justice system. Partisanship on the judicial bench is a threat to our democracy. These…

The democrats set a dangerous precedent today: If you can’t win at the ballot box, then try and put your opponent in jail. This is not the American way. It is a horrible abuse of the justice system.
The real verdict will be delivered by the American people in November.… pic.twitter.com/ExTswhz6JA

I never thought we would have a “show me the man and I’ll show you the crime” kangaroo court in America. This is exactly the type of election interference the U.S. fights against in third world countries.
Disagree with Democrats and go to jail. The trial and verdict against…
