Though apparently not one to do things by halves, Trump was in fact convicted of 34 felonies — specifically, 34 counts of falsifying business records. That's over three tens. And that's terrible.

Meanwhile, others noted that this guilty verdict put Republicans in the bizarre situation of having a convicted felon as their candidate for President of the United States. There is no law in the United States that disqualifies people from running for president if they have criminal convictions.
Trump's conviction doesn't mean he'll lose voting rights either. Despite many mistakenlystatingotherwise, felons who are convicted in New York can still cast a ballotprovided they aren't actually in jail during the voting period.
Still, the fact that this is even a question says a lot about the state of U.S. politics right now.
