American football player and political candidate Former President Donald Trump speaks at a rally in Delaware, Ohio, on Saturday, April 23, 2022.
Trump said that he was “disappointed” with the verdict and pointed the finger at Weisselberg, suggesting he was a lone wolf. But in a morning post on his social media website, Truth Social, Trump had criticized the district attorney and accused him of running a “Witch Hunt for D.C. against ‘Trump’ over Fringe Benefits, something that in the history of our Country, has never been so tried in Court before.
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.
Trump endorsed Walker early in the campaign, even as some Republicans in Washington were squeamish about a personal history that included allegations of abuse. Yet Trump was adamant that Walker would not face consequences with voters for his history, appearing to see the athlete as living proof that the ex-president himself, who survived one scandal after another, had changed the alchemy of campaigns.
