At a time when the superpower nation America is gearing up for the Presidential elections to elect the Next President a shocking development took place with a former President facing a big blow. He was convicted in a criminal hush money trial. The New York Court gave the sensational verdict.

We are talking about Donald Trump here. He was found guilty in a hush money criminal case ahead of the elections. The jury found him guilty in the case which goes back to a few years. It is said that his conviction also comes with a jail term.

It is known that Donald Trump has been facing allegations of an alleged relationship with a porn star. There are 34 felony counts against him. He is accused of paying big money to the star to keep her silent about the relationship and this happened ahead of the 2016 elections.

Donald Trump has been allegations in the case for a few years. Ahead of the possible nomination of him as the President candidate, the verdict was given by the jury which can be seen as a big blow to him.

As expected Donald Trump denied all the allegations and said that he had nothing to do with it. Reports say that he pleaded not guilty before the court at the time of arguments. The case has been getting all the attention to see what the court would say. Putting an end to this, the jury found Donald Trump guilty.

It is said that Donald Trump might also face a jail term with the verdict. While there is a possibility of Donald Trump challenging this verdict in the higher courts, if the jail term is imposed then it would be a big blow to him that too ahead of the elections.

After the verdict was out there were a few doubts about whether this might have an impact on the elections and his winning chances. Joe Biden’s circles might highlight the same issues during the campaign to have an advantage.
