Trump trial updates: Trump found guilty on all 34 counts

The guilty verdict shows "no one is above the law," a representative for President Joe Biden's campaign said, adding, "But today's verdict does not change the fact that the American people face a simple reality. There is still only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: at the ballot box."

"Convicted felon or not, Trump will be the Republican nominee for president," Michael Tyler, communications director for the Biden-Harris campaign, said in a statement.

"A second Trump term means chaos, ripping away Americans' freedoms and fomenting political violence -- and the American people will reject it this November," Tyler said.

The White House offered a very brief comment, with a White House Counsel's Office spokesperson saying, "We respect the rule of law, and have no additional comment."

Trump allies released a flurry of statements just minutes after the jury's decision in Donald Trump's hush money case was announced.

"The verdict in New York is a complete travesty that makes a mockery of our system of justice," Sen. Marco Rubio, a Florida Republican who is a potential vice president pick, posted on the social platform X.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Republican who is second in line to the presidency, in a statement called the trial "a purely political exercise, not a legal one." Johnson added: "President Trump will rightfully appeal this absurd verdict-and he WILL WIN!"

Ahead of the jury announcing a verdict, one Republican urged people to respect the legal process.

Larry Hogan, the former governor of Maryland who is now running for the Senate, wrote on X that "all leaders-regardless of party-must not pour fuel on the fire with more toxic partisanship. We must reaffirm what has made this nation great: the rule of law."

Former President Donald Trump called the hush money trial "rigged" while speaking outside the courthouse Thursday just moments after learning he was found guilty on 34 counts.

"This was a disgrace," Trump told reporters. "This was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge who was corrupt. It's a rigged trial, a disgrace."
