Trump vows to ‘fight to the end,’ promising ‘this is long from over’ after guilty verdict
Fox News
Former President Trump vowed to continue fighting for the Constitution after he was found guilty on all counts in the unprecedented NY v. Trump case, adding the “real verdict” will be read on Election Day.
“This was a rigged, disgraceful trial. The real verdict is going to be Nov. 5 by the people,” Trump said outside the court Thursday.
“This was a rigged decision right from day one. With a conflicted judge who should have never been allowed to try this case. Never. And we will fight for our Constitution. This is long from over.”

The jury found Trump guilty on all counts late Thursday afternoon.
“You have a Soros-backed DA and the whole thing. We didn’t do anything wrong. I’m a very innocent man. And it’s OK. I’m fighting for our country. I’m fighting for our Constitution. Our whole country is being rigged right now,” Trump continued.

The jury’s verdict comes after deliberations on both Wednesday and Thursday.
“This was done by the Biden administration in order to wound or hurt an opponent, a political opponent. And I think it’s just a disgrace. And we’ll keep fighting. We’ll fight till the end and we’ll win because our country’s gone to hell. We don’t have the same country anymore. We have a divided mess. We’re a nation of decline, serious decline,” Trump added.
The verdict comes after six weeks of trial in Manhattan court, which largely kept Trump off the campaign trial.
