Governor Doug Burgum (R-ND) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that it would be a “travesty of justice” if former President Donald Trump were convicted in the New York business records trial.
Anchor Jake Tapper said, “According to polling a plurality of the American people think that President Trump did commit a crime when it comes to this case and if you add in those who think it was unethical, but not illegal, it’s a vast majority. Let me just ask you if Donald Trump becomes a convicted felon because of this case, will that affect your support for him for president?”
He added, “Then you can be assured as Americans would know, that any kind of appeal would be pushed until after the election. So that’s why everybody sees this is politically motivated. And like I said filing error is not something that would affect any American people that are trying to put food on the table and gas in the car. It doesn’t affect check them. So it this is why the outcome of this trial is not going to change a lot of people’s minds. It might actually, in some ways help President Trump because it reinforces the idea that the Biden administration is willing to use lawfare to try to attack a political opponent.”
