A New York City jury found former President Donald Trump guilty on several counts of falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments ahead of the 2016 presidential records, according to breaking reports.

The judge announced that he would allow jurors to go home at approximately 4:30 p.m., and the jurors responded by saying they have a verdict and need about 30 minutes to fill out the form, MSNBC reported on air. ...

CNN interviewed a man named Max, who said the former president's 91 criminal charges didn't give him any pause to vote for him in the GOP primary election in South Carolina, in part because of the voter's own prior run-in with the law. But when asked by a CNN reporter about what he would do if Trump was found guilty on one of those charges, the man froze, saying, "Hold on" and then suggesting it would have a significant impact on his voting decision.

People like Max are who we should be watching to see if Trump's support is deteriorating ahead of the 2024 contest, according to Alyssa Farah Griffin....
