Following the recent guilty verdict in the New York criminal case against former President Donald Trump, his campaign has seen a significant financial boost. Trump announced on social media that the campaign raised nearly $53 million in just 24 hours after the verdict was delivered.
Despite this fundraising success, the legal challenges for Trump are far from over. The next milestone in the case is his sentencing scheduled for July 11th, which falls just days before the Republican National Convention. There is speculation about whether Trump's legal team will seek to postpone the sentencing date to a later time in the year. Meetings are expected to take place in the coming days to determine the best course of action, considering the team's commitments to another case in Florida until the end of June.
It is anticipated that Trump's legal team will file an appeal in response to the conviction. Throughout the duration of the case, they have been actively preparing for the possibility of an appeal by filing motions, raising objections, and addressing constitutional concerns. The appeal process is likely to be lengthy and could extend beyond the November election.
As the legal proceedings continue, the Trump team will navigate the strategic decisions surrounding the sentencing date and the potential appeal. These developments will be closely watched as they unfold in the coming weeks and months.
