President Joe Biden stated on Thursday during ABC’s “World News Tonight” that former President Donald Trump, his Republican rival for the 2024 election, received a “fair trial” when questioned about Trump’s guilty verdict by a Manhattan jury on 34 counts of falsifying business records.
“World News Tonight” anchor David Muir inquired, “You did address Donald Trump and the guilty verdicts on 34 felony counts to the American people. You urged Americans to respect the jury and the outcome of this case. While at a campaign fund-raiser, you mentioned that a convicted felon is now seeking the presidency. You described it as disturbing. What do you think the American people should make of it?”
The president added, “He’s attempting to undermine it. Look, he received a fair trial. The jury delivered their verdict as they do in all cases, and it should be respected.”
