1
00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio News.

2
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:11,960
Speaker 2: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager and.

3
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today.

4
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 3: Karen, we begin with the unprecedented, historic moment in American politics.

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 3: Donald Trump has been found guilty in the first criminal

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 3: trial of a former US president in the nation's history.

7
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 3: Five months before this year's presidential election, twelve New York

8
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 3: jurors found Trump guilty on all thirty four counts of

9
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 3: falsifying business records to conceal a hush money payment to

10
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 3: adult film actress Stormy Daniels ahead of the twenty sixteen election.

11
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,239
Speaker 3: Prosecutors argued it was a conspiracy that deprived voters of

12
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 3: vital information before they cast their votes. In twenty sixteen,

13
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 3: Trump spoke after the verdict came down, this was a.

14
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 4: Rigged, disgraceful trial that the real verdict is going to

15
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 4: be November fifth.

16
00:00:58,960 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 5: By the people.

17
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 3: And Donald Trump criticized Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who

18
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 3: led the charges.

19
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 6: You have a so.

20
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 7: Respect DA and the whole thing. We didn't do any

21
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 7: thing wrong.

22
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 4: I'm a very innocent man.

23
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 3: And now former President Donald Trump is due for sentencing

24
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 3: on July eleventh, after which he plans to appeal.

25
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 1: Well Nathan Manhattan dished Attorney Alvin Bragg also spoke after

26
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: the verdict, saying his office handled in this case like

27
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: any other.

28
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 8: Well, this defendant may be unlike any other in American history.

29
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 8: We arrived at this trial and ultimately today at this

30
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 8: verdict in the same manner as every other case that

31
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:42,199
Speaker 8: comes to the courtroom doors.

32
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,639
Speaker 1: Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg called the case a white collar

33
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: prosecution core to the mission of his office. Bragg thanked

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: the jury for their deliberations after the five week trial.

35
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 2: Well Karen.

36
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 3: One of the key questions following the verdict is whether

37
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 3: or not Donald Trump will become the first US president

38
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 3: sentenced to prison. Ramifications are unclear at the moment, but

39
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 3: Bloomberg Law host June Grosso explains the likely next steps.

40
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 9: Donald Trump will be sentenced on July eleventh. Each of

41
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 9: the thirty four counts is a Class E felony, which

42
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 9: can carry a prison term of up to four years.

43
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 9: A typical defendant convicted of a felony charged is sentenced

44
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 9: to serve some prison time, but there's nothing in the

45
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 9: law that requires it. Judge Wanmershan could instead sentence Trump

46
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 9: to probation, especially if he decides that leniency is warranted

47
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 9: because the former president is seventy seven years old and

48
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 9: a first time offender with no criminal record. In New York,

49
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 9: June Grosso Bloomberg Radio, all right.

50
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: June, thank you. So, how will the conviction impact Donald

51
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: Trump's presidential run? Republican strategist Man Gorman tells Bloomberg's Balance

52
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: of Power things will stay status quo.

53
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 10: It's gonna be a typical Trump news cycle in this

54
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 10: respect that there's gonna be a lot of noise. I

55
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 10: don't think at the end it changes anything back dramatic.

56
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 10: This is going to be competitive presidential election at today,

57
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 10: it'll be tomorrow it.

58
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: Was yesterday, Republican strategist Matt Gorman. And on the other

59
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: side of the aisle, Democratic strategist Kristin Hahn says President

60
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,119
Speaker 1: Biden needs to capitalize on the convictions.

61
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 11: Still going to be a tight race, but President Trump

62
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 11: has laid the groundwork here. I think it's going to

63
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 11: be up to the Biden campaign to figure out where

64
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 11: and when they need to push back on this now

65
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 11: that he's finally been convicted.

66
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 2: Because it really is a huge deal.

67
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 1: Democratic strategist Kristin Hahn added that Democrats need to focus

68
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,839
Speaker 1: on fundraising between now and the conventions.

69
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: Well, Karen, President Biden's twenty twenty four campaign has already

70
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 3: put out fundraising appeals following the verdict. Then it released

71
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 3: a statement in response saying it showed no one is

72
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 3: above the law, adding that quote, there is still only

73
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval

74
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 3: office at the ballot box, Nathan.

75
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: We also heard from Trump and Biden's political rival, Independent

76
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: presidential candidate Robert F.

77
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior.

78
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: He told it crowdon Austin last night, the outcome will

79
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: actually benefit the former president.

80
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 12: My belief that it will end up helping President Trump

81
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 12: among America a large part of American public.

82
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 2: Who believes that.

83
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 12: The judicial system and the enforcement system have been weaponized.

84
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: Independent Robert F. Kennedy Junior also called the verdict amos

85
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: steak that will politically backfire on Democrats and Karen.

86
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 3: We continue to watch the political fallout in the nation's capital.

87
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 3: We get that part of the story from Bloomberg's Amy Morris.

88
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 2: In Washington.

89
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 13: The Biden Harris campaign released a statement saying, quote, we

90
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 13: saw that no one is above the law. House Speaker

91
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,359
Speaker 13: Mike Johnson posted on x that quote. Today is a

92
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 13: shameful day in American history. Bloomberg's Megan Scully says, lawmakers

93
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 13: on Capitol Hill are all in campaign mode, and this

94
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 13: guilty verdict is a factor.

95
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 14: We have tons of legislation coming to the floor that

96
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,359
Speaker 14: are messaging votes, things that are never going.

97
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 2: To become law, but that are good.

98
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 14: For their candidates to vote on. And I think that

99
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 14: there will certainly be some messaging legislation targeted at supporting

100
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 14: Donald Trump.

101
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 13: Bloomberg's Megan's Gully on Bloomberg's balance of power in Washington.

102
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 13: Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio.

103
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 1: All right, Amy, thank you well. We do also have

104
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: some important news in the markets today. All eyes are

105
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: on a key data point. It's at an eight thirty

106
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 1: am Wall Street time. The PCE deflator, the Fed's preferred

107
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: inflation gauge, and Bloomberg's Michael McKee has a preview for

108
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: the Fed.

109
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 15: PCE inflation is the number. They're two percent inflation target

110
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 15: is based on the PCE. The good news is this

111
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 15: measure of inflation is expected to tick down at least

112
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 15: on a year over year basis, suggesting the central Bank

113
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 15: is still making progress on its goal. Some analysts think

114
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 15: the core rate could even come in lower month over month,

115
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 15: which might lead to a strong market reaction. What it

116
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 15: won't do up or down is change forecasts. For the

117
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 15: fed's next meeting on June twelfth, Policymakers have made it

118
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 15: clear they'll need more than one good report to start

119
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 15: considering any change in rates. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Radio.

120
00:05:59,000 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 2: Mike, thank you.

121
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 3: We are all so following more Fed speak, this time

122
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 3: from New York President John Williams. He says inflation is

123
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 3: headed in the right direction. More in this report from

124
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 3: Bloomberg's John Tucker, John and.

125
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 16: Nate Williams telling the Economic Club of New York Hey

126
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 16: expects inflation to continue falling in the second half of

127
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 16: this year and that higher borrowing costs are restraining the

128
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 16: economy just the way they want.

129
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 17: The behavior of the economy of the past year provides

130
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 17: ample evidence that MANTE policy is restrictive in a way

131
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 17: that helps achieve our goals. We're seeing clear and consistent

132
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 17: signs of the imbalances between supply and demand in the

133
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,239
Speaker 17: economy are receiving and we've seen a broad based declient

134
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 17: in inflation.

135
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 16: Williams can't say winning support a rate cut and that

136
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 16: any rate increases unlikely. He sees inflation as measured by

137
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 16: the PCEE Price Index, falling to about two and a

138
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 16: half percent by year and before moving closer to their

139
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 16: two percent target next year. I'm John Tucker, Bloomberg Radio.

140
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 3: All right, John, thank you, and again repeating our top

141
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 3: story of the morning. Donald Trump is the first US

142
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 3: president to be found guilty in a criminal trial. We

143
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 3: will have coverage for you of this historic moment in

144
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 3: American politics. All morning, long.

145
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: Time now for look at some of the other stories

146
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: making news in New York and around the world. And

147
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,679
Speaker 1: for that we're joined by Bloomberg. So Michael Barr, Michael,

148
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: good morning.

149
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 5: Good morning, Karen. Local reaction continues to come in after

150
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 5: former President Donald Trump was found guilty on all thirty

151
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 5: four counts in his hush money trial. People outside the

152
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 5: Manhattan court House had mixed views.

153
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 4: It just seems to me like the fix was in,

154
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 4: that they were out to get Trump. But I think

155
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 4: he's going to get more popular with the American people.

156
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 18: I am feeling emotional because I have six grandchildren and

157
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 18: I want the United States to be for them what

158
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 18: it was for me, which you know is a baby boomer,

159
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 18: which is growing up with presidents that you can admire

160
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,000

165
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,240

172
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 19: Was a role model to younger troopers, and he set

173
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 19: a high standard for them to follow, but he was

174
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 19: much more than that.

175
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,160

00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,720

Speaker 20: Wasn't going to be wide open and we were going

211
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 20: to have forty chances a night, so we need to

212
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 20: capitalize on some of the ones that we did generate,

213
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 20: and you know, we were unable to do that tonight.

214
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 20: It was like I said, it was, it was tight.

215
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 20: The game was tight. I thought we had looks. I

216
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 20: thought we had chances. They didn't go in. It came

217
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:57,839

Speaker 2: Good Morning.

249
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 3: I'm Nathan Hager on a morning after a former president

250
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 3: and a major party candidate in the next president audential

251
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 3: election became a convicted felon for the first time in

252
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: American history. The guilty verdicts for Donald Trump come with

253
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 3: legal and political implications, so let's get right to it.

254
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 3: Joining us now, Bloomberg News legal reporter Eric Larson, who

255
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 3: was in the Manhattan courthouse as those verdicts came down.

256
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 3: Eric Good Morning, paid a picture for us because listening

257
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 3: from the outside, we heard the verdicts come down like

258
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:50,680
Speaker 3: Domino's one after the other.

259
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: Guilty on count one, two, three, etc.

260
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 3: What was it like inside the courtroom as the jury

261
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 3: foreman read out those verdicts.

262
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 6: It was a very solemn moment. There was quite a

263
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 6: bit of tension, you know. The former president was there

264
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 6: with his entire legal team and many supporters, including his son.

265
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 6: The district attorney was there with many of his prosecutors,

266
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 6: and of course there was a lot of press passed

267
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 6: into that courtroom. The jury filed out, and the jury

268
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 6: foreman was asked to stand up and read out the

269
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 6: finding for each of the thirty four counts, and he

270
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 6: just read out guilty thirty four times in a row.

271
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 6: It was pretty unexpected. Actually, everyone in the court courtroom

272
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 6: believed that they were about to be excused for the

273
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 6: day around four point thirty in the afternoon, because that's

274
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,199
Speaker 6: when the jury was supposed to wrap up, and there

275
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 6: was no indication they were going to stay late. The

276
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 6: judge had everyone gather, said he was about to dismiss

277
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 6: the jury, left the courtroom for a few minutes and

278
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 6: came back and said, well, actually they have a verdict.

279
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 6: So it was quite a surprise. Trump had a very solemn,

280
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 6: you could say, potentially angry look, on his face more

281
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 6: so than during most of the trial, and walked out

282
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 6: of the courtroom without glancing at anyone anyone, any members

283
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 6: of the press, as he had done many times throughout

284
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 6: the trial. He just had a stoic look on his

285
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 6: face and walked out.

286
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 3: Oh he certainly saw and heard that anger and frustration

287
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 3: following the verdict as he came out to address reporters

288
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 3: last evening, and he's promising to fight on all the way.

289
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: What could that fight look like?

290
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 3: What could the appeals process look like for the former president?

291
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 6: You know, it's an appealed process that can't technically start

292
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 6: until he is sentenced. That's on July eleventh, So it's

293
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 6: not until he finds out how much time he'll spend

294
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 6: in prison, if any not until then will he actually

295
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 6: be able to start his appeal. That could drag on

296
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 6: for a while.

297
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 21: I've been told by legal experts though, that in many cases,

298
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 21: individuals who are convicted for crimes like this are sent

299
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 21: to jail if there is a prison term while they appeal.

300
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 6: You know, because the idea being that just because someone

301
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 6: is appealing, they shouldn't be able to drag out the

302
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 6: consequences of a jury's verdict by simply appealing and dragging

303
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 6: that out as long as possible. So it remains to

304
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 6: be seen whether or not he would be allowed to

305
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 6: remain free during the appeal. It also remains to be

306
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 6: seen if the judge will even sentence him to any

307
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 6: time behind bars. Of course, probation is an option. There's

308
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 6: no mandatory sentence, and for prison here, the maximum, of

309
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 6: course is four years, But experts have said that even

310
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 6: if he is sentenced to an incarceory period, that have

311
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 6: been nothing near that. Trump is a first time offender here.

312
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 6: This isn't a kind of crime that involved traditional types

313
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 6: of victims, so the judge has some leeway if he

314
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 6: wants to give him a sentence that does not involve

315
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 6: time behind bars.

316
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 2: Are we expecting to hear from the jury.

317
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a million dollar question here. Obviously, the jury

318
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 6: was an anonymous jury, very rare, usually reserved for cases

319
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 6: involving you know, the mafia, or terrorism cases, something where

320
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 6: the jury is in real danger. And the prosecutors argued,

321
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 6: and the judge agreed that this jury should be anonymous

322
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:42,239
Speaker 6: for their own safety. Given Trump's track record of attacking

323
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 6: people involved in the cases against him, and as he

324
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 6: did throughout the case. Of course, Trump was threatened with

325
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 6: jail during the trial for violating a gag order multiple

326
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 6: times that was intended to protect the safety of the

327
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 6: jury and the witnesses. On the judge made it very

328
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 6: clear to Trump that if he violated that gag order

329
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,399
Speaker 6: again he would put him in jail, even if it

330
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 6: meant having his Secret Service, you know, in there with him.

331
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 6: He said, I will do this, uh, and that that

332
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,439
Speaker 6: that blocked, that stops Trump from doing that. So you

333
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 6: can see that how serious it was. But on the

334
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 6: after the verdict was handed down, the judge told the

335
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 6: jury everything all the rules that I've told you about

336
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 6: not talking to anyone, you know, including the press or

337
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 6: your family, that's all lifted. Now you can do what

338
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 6: you want. But you can imagine some of the jurors

339
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 6: might be torn here. Some would want to protect their safety,

340
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 6: the safety of their families. It's no uh, it's no surprise.

341
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 1: You know.

342
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 6: Trump has a lot of supporters and some of them

343
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,360
Speaker 6: have resorted in violence in the past, and they're very

344
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 6: going to be very upset about this conviction. But there

345
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 6: might be other jurors who are willing to take that

346
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 6: risk and want to, you know, tell America what they

347
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 6: were thinking and when they came to this verdict. Why.

348
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 3: One more thing to watch is we continue to follow

349
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 3: the ramifications of these guilty verdicts for the former president. Eric,

350
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 3: thank you for this. Eric Larson, legal reporter for Bloomberg News,

351
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 3: who was in the courtroom as those verdicts came down.

352
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 3: We want to look at the political impact now with

353
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 3: Greg Valier joining US now chief US policy strategist at

354
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 3: AGF Investments, Greg, good morning. When I heard those verdicts

355
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,439
Speaker 3: came down last evening, the image that came to my

356
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 3: mind was from actually several years ago when former President

357
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 3: Trump was in the White House and he held up

358
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 3: the newspaper after he was acquitted an impeachment. Obviously, he's

359
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 3: not holding up any newspapers this morning. What are the

360
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 3: political impacts of a criminal conviction, a felony conviction for

361
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 3: a former president?

362
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 22: Well, good morning, Nathan. We're really in uncharted waters right now.

363
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 22: Obviously nothing like this has ever happened in the US,

364
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 22: so it may be a few weeks before public opinion shells.

365
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 22: Will the public say this is just a witch hunt

366
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 22: against Trump, or will the public say we got Trump fatigue.

367
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 22: We need to get rid of this guy. So I

368
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 22: don't think that the public has really solidified its opinion

369
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 22: just yet.

370
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 3: Well, we did get some snap polls from you gov

371
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 3: moments after the verdicts came down. Whether Trump got a

372
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 3: fair trial yes by ten points. Whether they agree that

373
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 3: he's guilty yes by twenty points. Obviously get very different

374
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 3: margins when you break it down by party. Could that

375
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 3: translate into how Americans vote in November?

376
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 22: It could? And I've been making the point for the

377
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 22: last few days that the biggest, next biggest story is

378
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 22: on June twenty seventh. That's the first debate between Biden

379
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 22: and Trump. I think that's going to be pivotal. If

380
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 22: Trump looks rusty and stumbles at all, that could hurt him.

381
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 22: If Biden has a gaff which he's been known to do,

382
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 22: that could hurt him. I think the rest of the

383
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 22: election the tone will be set on June twenty seventh.

384
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 3: I'm so glad you mentioned the debate. It's coming up

385
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 3: in less than four weeks, and you have to think

386
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 3: that even several weeks after the verdict, this is going

387
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 3: to overshadow everything, isn't it.

388
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 22: Yeah, the first debate four years ago got thirteen million people.

389
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 22: I think they could get twenty million. This is going

390
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 22: to be such a highly anticipated debate, so with twenty

391
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 22: million people, there's an opportunity for either candidate to gain

392
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 22: a point or two and that could sort of set

393
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 22: the tone for the rest of the fault.

394
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 3: How does the political punditry handle something like this when

395
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 3: the major party candidate on one side of the aisle

396
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 3: is a convicted felon.

397
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 22: Yeah, I know it's awkward for people, but it's worth

398
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 22: noting that the Republicans are, in my opinion, extraordinarily well unified.

399
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 22: Maybe twenty percent of the Republicans have some doubts, but

400
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 22: I think Trump has really strong support in his own party,

401
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 22: and I think the overwhelming view is that he hasn't

402
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 22: been treated failure.

403
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 3: Core support from core voters obviously, and we've seen Republican

404
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 3: elected officials pretty much all in all lineup behind not

405
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 3: just supporting the president, but adopting a lot of his

406
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 3: rhetoric about the rigged nature as the former president puts it.

407
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 3: Of this case, is there a risk for Republicans if

408
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 3: they continue to criticize the system that it could backfire

409
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 3: on them.

410
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 22: Absolutely, great point, Nathan. I think there are other issues too,

411
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 22: like abortions. So I think it's still way premature to

412
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 22: write off Joe Biden. I realize he has many flaws

413
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 22: and a lot of the issues are broken against him,

414
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 22: but I think that Biden still has a shot if

415
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,400
Speaker 22: the Republicans are playing this incorrectly and just quickly.

416
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 3: How do you see the Biden campaign handling this. We've

417
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 3: seen a kind of a tepid statement up to this point.

418
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 3: But do you see whether the Biden campaign can sort

419
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 3: of shift the advantage that former President Trump has managed

420
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 3: to make from pretty much all the legal issues he's had.

421
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 22: Yeah, they can, But my lord, you look at Biden

422
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 22: only ahead modestly in New York State. You look at

423
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 22: Biden groveling for support among black voters. These are things

424
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 22: that a Democrat shouldn't even have to worry about. So

425
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 22: Biden still has a lot of ground to make up.

426
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 22: But I do think there's a chance that the Republicans

427
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 22: could overplay their hand with Donald Trump.

428
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 3: Thanks Greg, as always, Greg VALUERCHIFS Policy Strategist, AGF Investments.

429
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 7: Now a look at the front pages. What's making news

430
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,880
Speaker 7: around the world, Your daily roundup of today's headlines from

431
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 7: major publications.

432
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 3: Sen Bloomberg's Lisa Mateo is here with the front page

433
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 3: round up. Obviously, every front page around the world is

434
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 3: focused on the Trump verdicts, but we had a big

435
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 3: take story from Bloomberg News as well that says, despite

436
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 3: the guilty verdicts, Lisa wall Street, billionaires are rushing to

437
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 3: back the former president.

438
00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 2: Good morning, Yeah they are.

439
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 23: Good morning. Nathan's so Amid Malik. He's president of seventeen

440
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 23: eighty nine Capital. He co hosted a fundraiser for Trump

441
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 23: at the Pierre Hotel on Fifth Avenue before the verdict,

442
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 23: and he said that the outcome would have less than

443
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 23: zero impact on his support.

444
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 4: Now.

445
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 23: The fundraiser also hosted by billionaire Howard Lutnick. Hours before

446
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,199
Speaker 23: the verdict, hedge fund investor Bill Ackman was said to

447
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 23: be leaning toward backing the former president. Then you have

448
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 23: private equity Mogel. Longtime Republican donor Steven Schwarzman said he

449
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 23: was getting behind Trump again. I mean a big reason

450
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 23: for the support that you'll see through this article. It

451
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 23: says that it's money. Trump has promised to cut taxes

452
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 23: for the wealthy, eliminate regulations. President Joe Biden wants the opposite.

453
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. Also an article here in the New York Post

454
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: Lisa about Trump's campaign donation page which crashed after the verdict.

455
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 23: Yeah, it did less than an hour after he was convicted.

456
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 23: His campaign wrote on x that the wind red pages

457
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 23: it went down trumpetviter Chris Lasavida. He said the outage

458
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 23: was due to quote millions of American patriots wanting to

459
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 23: donate to Donald Trump's campaign. Then you had Lee Zelden,

460
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 23: a Trump campaign sarrogate. He's also a former Long Island congressman.

461
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 23: He posted on X that one of Trump's campaign committees

462
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 23: reportedly secured an eight hundred thousand dollars donation shortly after

463
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 23: the verdict. What might have overwhelmed the site? Well, the

464
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,359
Speaker 23: juries after the jury's decision, there was a post on

465
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 23: Truth social from the Trump National Committee. It said that

466
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 23: it called him a political prisoner. It said that your

467
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 23: support is the only thing sitting between us and the

468
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,400
Speaker 23: total tyranny. But that website, it was back online about

469
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 23: a half hour after it went down.

470
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 3: And speaking of true socially, so the post is also

471
