Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of former President Donald Trump, slammed Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s trial against his father on Thursday after a jury returned a highly controversial guilty verdict.

The decision is the culmination of a weeks-long courtroom battle in which Trump said that he was the target of a “political persecution” — a point that was seemingly validated when President Joe Biden sent his campaign to hold a political event outside the courthouse this week as he runs another campaign for a second term in the White House. The former president was found guilty on all 34 charges brought in the hush-money trial.

“Such bulls***. Guilty on all counts,” Trump Jr. responded in a post on X. “The Democrats have succeeded in their years long attempt to turn America into a third-world s**thole. November 5 is our last chance to save it.”

“Sentencing is 4 days before the GOP Convention…They’re not even trying to hide the ELECTION INTERFERENCE!!!!” he continued. “This case was rigged from the start. Remember, the same hacks in the media demanding Justice Alito recuse himself because of a flag, have zero problem with the corrupt judge in this case being a donor to Joe Biden or his daughter making millions from Democrats!”

Trump Jr. said that Judge Juan Merchan, who presided over the trial, was never an impartial judge because of his history as a “full blown Democrat activist and Biden donor.”

“This is what a 3rd world Banana Republic looks like,” he added.

Trump Jr. also posted a link to where voters can donate to his father’s campaign. Traffic to the site was so heavy following the verdict that the website repeatedly crashed due to the number of people giving.

Eric Trump, the former president’s second oldest son, added: “May 30th, 2024 might be remembered as the day Donald J. Trump won the 2024 Presidential Election.”

Former President Donald Trump responded to the guilty verdict that he received in a Manhattan courtroom on Thursday by saying that the real verdict would be delivered on election day by the American people.

Jurors convicted Trump on all 34 counts in the controversial hush-money case. Legal experts say that the ruling will be quickly appealed by Trump’s legal team.

“This was a disgrace. This was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge who was corrupt,” Trump said after the verdict was read. “It’s a rigged trial, a disgrace. They wouldn’t give us a venue change. We were at 5% or 6% in this district, in this area. This was a rigged, disgraceful trial. The real verdict is going to be November 5 by the people. And they know what happened here. And everybody knows what happened here.”

“You have a Soros-backed D.A. and the whole thing, we didn’t do anything wrong. I’m a very innocent man,” he continued. “And it’s okay, I’m fighting for our country. I’m fighting for our Constitution. Our whole country is being rigged right now. This was done by the Biden administration in order to wound or hurt an opponent, a political opponent. And I think it’s a just a disgrace. And we’ll keep fighting. We’ll fight till the end, and we’ll win because our country has gone to hell.”

“We don’t have the same country anymore,” he concluded. “We have a divided mess. We’re a nation in decline, serious decline, millions and millions of people pouring into our country right now from prisons and from mental institutions, terrorists, and they’re taking over our country. We have a country that’s in big trouble. But this was a rigged decision right from day one, with a conflicted judge who should have never been allowed to try this case. Never. And we will fight for our Constitution. This is long from over. Thank you very much.”
