<br />* Just as supporters of the Dhali Lama or Jim Jones were mesmerized to be in the presence of their leaders- the Maga folks are in the sane boat. Their Dear leader can do no wrong, when he says he is innocent, they better believe it. If their leader rants & raves in posts after midnight, it's " pretty normal " behavior especially if the leader is under attack. <br /><br />*Now if Joe decided to rant & rave with texts after midnight- the word Senility & Dementia would be throw about, but...

<br />Lots of republican talking heads are questioning why he didn't take the stand and simply say "Cohen and Daniels are liars". The real problem for Trump and probably why he didn't testify was David Pecker's testimony. We can only imagine what else Pecker knows about Trump.

The republican party has a unknown to New lows. Backing a convicted felon and making a big fuss about the charges. Really he's laughing at all his dumb followers! He commits crime after crime and they back him.

For the first time in United States history, a former -- and quite possibly future -- president is now officially a convicted felon.

The guilty verdict in Donald Trump's hush money trial has opened a huge can of worms regarding what this could mean for him legally. Like any other American found guilty of a crime, Trump is likely to face new restrictions and lose a number of rights due to his newfound felon status.

Here's what legal experts say we can expect to see happen.

Could Trump still run for president?

He most certainly could. As long as you're over 35, a natural-born citizen and a resident of the U.S. for at least 14 years, you're eligible to run for president.

It wouldn't be the first time there's been a convicted felon in the presidential race, in 1920, Socialist Party candidate Eugene V. Debs won 3.4% of the popular vote while in prison on sedition charges for speaking out against the World War I draft.

Could he still vote?

Yes, unless he's in prison.

Though Florida -- where Trump is registered to vote -- prohibits people convicted of felonies from voting until their sentence is complete, New York law will allow him to maintain his voting rights.

In New York, felons are only barred from voting if they are currently incarcerated, and voting rights are automatically restored upon their release from prison.

Florida law states that felons are ineligible to vote only if the conviction would make the person ineligible to vote in the state where the person was convicted, thus clearing the way for Trump to cast his ballot in November -- as long as he's not behind bars at that point, in which case, he would be legally prohibited from voting.
