Donald Trump is the first former president convicted of felony crimes, found guilty of falsifying business records in a scheme involving hush money payments. The verdict exposes him to potential prison time and presents a test for voters' acceptance of his behavior.
The falsifying business records charges carry up to four years behind bars, raising questions about potential imprisonment. Despite the conviction, Trump can continue his pursuit of the White House amid three other felony indictments.
The verdict in the New York case could have significant political implications as Trump seeks a return to politics. It remains unclear if the judge will impose prison time, and the outcome may reinforce existing opinions about Trump.
