Former President Donald Trump speaks at a rally in Delaware, Ohio, on April 23, 2022.
A lawyer for the company said officials will appeal the verdict, which was due in part to testimony from its longtime chief financial officer, Allen Weisselberg, who pleaded guilty to failing to pay taxes on company perks.Trump said that he was “disappointed” with the verdict and pointed the finger at Weisselberg, suggesting he was a lone wolf.
The company will face a seven-figure fine, and the verdict could hinder its future endeavors. While convicting a company is not convicting a person — Trump himself was not charged in connection with the case — the taint of criminality is something that the former real estate developer and promoter has sought to avoid for decades.
On Tuesday night, as the trial’s impact sank in, attention turned to Georgia. Herschel Walker, a former professional football player who was a member of the New Jersey Generals, a United States Football League team owned by Trump in the early 1980s, was waging an uphill battle in the state’s Senate runoff against incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock, a Democrat. In the end, Warnock prevailed in a tight election.
