Une condamnation historique. L’ancien président des États-Unis sera fixé sur son sort le 11 juillet prochain.

This is the first time that an American president or former president has been convicted by the criminal justice system.

Donald Trump was found guilty on Thursday by a New York court of all thirty-four counts against him in the pot affair wine paid to former porn star Stormy Daniels, to cover up a sex scandal, in 2016.

The Republican candidate, launched in the race for the White House, hastened to denounce "a rigged trial, a shame".

His sentence will be known on July 11

His sentence will be announced on July 11. This verdict does not prevent the 77-year-old billionaire from competing in the presidential election in November, against Democrat Joe Biden, even in the event of a prison sentence. He risks up to four years in prison.

This judgment will probably be the only one to come before the presidential election, among the four cases in which Trump is indicted.
