Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has warned that the politically motivated conviction of President Donald Trump in New York is going to “backfire” on the Democrats.
As Slay News reported, the jury found Trump “guilty” on all 34 counts on Thursday evening.
The shocking decision has stunned observers from all sides, raising major concerns about the state of America’s weaponized justice system.
Among these responding to the verdict was RFJ Jr., who is challenging both Trump and Democrat President Joe Biden in the November election.
“The Democratic Party believes it has a candidate that can’t beat President Trump and that they need to do it in the court,” Kennedy said.
“I think that’s bad for our country.
“I think it’s bad for democracy, and I think it’s politically going to backfire on them.”
