Here’s Why Trump Can Still Run for President , After Hush-Money Conviction.

Donald Trump made history on May 30 when he became the first U.S. president to be convicted of a crime.

Donald Trump made history on May 30 when he became the first U.S. president to be convicted of a crime.

He was found guilty on "34 felony counts of falsifying business documents" linked to hush-money paid to Stormy Daniels, NBC News reports.

.

Trump will be sentenced on July 11, four days before the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee where he is set to receive the party's presidential nomination.

But the former president barely batted an eye at the conviction, saying, "The real verdict is going to be Nov.

5 by the people.".

This was a rigged, disgraceful trial.

The real verdict is going to be Nov.

5 by the people, and they know what happened here, and everybody knows what happened here, Donald Trump, via statement.

I’m a very innocent man, and it’s OK.

I’m fighting for our country.

I’m fighting for our Constitution, Donald Trump, via statement.

Trump immediately used the conviction as a means to inspire his constituents to lend their support via money and votes.

.

He can still run for president because the criteria to do so, as stated in Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution, is as follows:.

A candidate must be a "natural born Citizen," at least 35 years old and have lived in the U.S. for 14 years.

There are no other qualifications other than those in the Constitution.

There's just three, Chuck Rosenberg, a former U.S. attorney and an NBC News and MSNBC legal analyst, via statement .

There is nothing in the Constitution that says someone who's been convicted of a crime can't run for the nation's highest office.

Some analysts predict that Trump's conviction may just be the fuel he needs to drum up unprecedented support from his ultra-MAGA army.

RUSSIA AND CHINA'S WW3 DRILLS: Putin And Xi Launch Massive Naval Drills After Trump Sends Submarines

Russia and China have launched joint naval drills near Japan in a direct response to former President Trump’s deployment of U.S. nuclear submarines. The “Joint Sea-2025” exercise features advanced anti-submarine warfare, air defense, and missile drills. Four Chinese warships, including guided-missile destroyers, are participating alongside Russian vessels. The display of force comes amid rising U.S.-China tensions and growing alignment between Moscow and Beijing. As Trump boasts of U.S. military strength, his move may have triggered an even bolder alliance challenging American dominance in the Pacific. #ChinaRussiaAlliance #NavalDrills #Trump #NuclearSubmarines #USMilitary #China #Russia #SeaOfJapan #JointSea2025 #MilitaryPower #Geopolitics #TrumpVsWorld #PacificTensions #USChinaRelations #GlobalSecurity #Putin #XiJinping #TrumpNews #WW3Fears #AntiSubmarineWarfare #AirDefense #MissileDrills #NavyStrength #USForeignPolicy #IndoPacific #RussiaUkraineWar #ChinaOilImports #Medevedev #TrumpThreat #StrategicAlliance #GlobalTensions Also Read Asim Munir Misled You, Pakistan Has No Oil Reserves: Baloch Leader's Open Letter To Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/asim-munir-misled-you-pakistan-has-no-oil-reserves-baloch-leaders-open-letter-to-trump-7819311.html?ref=DMDesc Government Reacts To Donald Trump's Statement, Scraps Reports Of Indian Oil Firms Halting Russian Imports :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/government-reacts-to-donald-trumps-statement-scraps-reports-of-indian-oil-firms-halting-russian-im-7818621.html?ref=DMDesc US-Russia Submarine Showdown: Moscow Shrugs Off Trump’s Nuclear Posturing :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-russia-submarine-showdown-moscow-shrugs-off-trump-s-nuclear-posturing-7818569.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.103~HT.408~

Trump’s BIGGEST ‘Betrayal’ To Americans? GOP Ally Slams Ukraine War Funding As Backstab To Voters [Video]

Trump’s BIGGEST ‘Betrayal’ To Americans? GOP Ally Slams Ukraine War Funding As Backstab To Voters

Outspoken Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene has condemned U.S. funding for the Ukraine war, calling it a “complete betrayal” of American taxpayers. Referring to Trump’s 2024 victory, Greene argued that voters had rejected foreign wars, yet Washington continues to finance conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. She accused Democrats—and some neocon Republicans—of pushing an “America LAST” agenda while warning that such policies will alienate younger voters permanently. Greene even called Israel’s Gaza offensive a “genocide,” highlighting deep fractures within Trump’s GOP. Despite campaign promises to end the war, Trump recently approved additional military support for Kiev, including Patriot missile systems. The debate exposes growing discontent among Republican ranks about endless foreign interventions and unchecked military spending. Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials praised Trump’s support, calling it a vital deterrent against Russian advances. Greene warned that ignoring these political alarm bells could prove disastrous for U.S. unity and voter trust. #MarjorieTaylorGreene #UkraineWar #GazaCrisis #Trump2024 #RepublicanDivide #USForeignPolicy #AmericaFirst #WarFunding #IsraelPalestine #Betrayal #TaxpayerMoney #StopTheWars #KievConflict #TrumpVsGOP #YoungVoterBacklash #TrumpMissiles #PatriotMissiles #MiddleEastTensions #BidenForeignPolicy #AmericanVoters Also Read Trump Claims Canada's Recognition of Palestinian State Complicates Trade Negotiations :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-uses-canada-palestinian-state-recognition-leverage-trade-talks-011-7817517.html?ref=DMDesc Trump's Ambition as a Global Peacemaker Faces Challenges Amid Gaza Ceasefire Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-global-peacemaker-gaza-ceasefire-challenges-011-7810943.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Condemns Brazilian Authorities for Alleged Witch Hunt Against Bolsonaro :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-criticises-brazilian-authorities-witch-hunt-bolsonaro-011-7794385.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.408~
