Donald Trump complained about being found guilty of 34 criminal charges for the secret payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.
“If they can do this to me, they can do it to anyone. These are bad people. I think in many cases these are sick people,” Trump said at a press conference.
The former president held a press conference where he again referred to immigrants as criminals and mentally ill.
“When you look at our country, you see what is happening where millions and millions of people are coming from all over the world,” he said. “They come from jails and prisons, and from mental institutions and asylums.”
Trump said he will file an appeal of the trial he faced, where 12 members of a jury unanimously found him guilty.
He again criticized Judge Juan Merchan, calling him “conflictive” and “tyrant,” in addition to regretting the silence order against him, which was imposed so that he would attack judicial personnel or witnesses.
“There has never been a more confrontational judge. I am now under a gag order, which no one has ever been under. No presidential candidate has ever been under a gag order before. “I am under a gag order, an unpleasant gag order,” he said.
