ai generated text

Donald Trump has announced that he will appeal his guilty verdict, becoming the first US president convicted of a crime. He claims the trial was an attempt to hinder his potential comeback bid for the White House in November's elections. In an unscripted speech, Trump stated that if they can do this to him, they can do it to anyone, and accused opponents of being "sick" and "fascists". He also criticized Judge Juan Merchan, calling him a "tyrant" who "literally crucified" witnesses. Trump's remarks were laced with personal attacks and conspiracy theories, as he claimed the trial was a "scam" and that Merchan is actually a "devil in disguise".

    1. Donald Trump was given every opportunity to defend himself. It was a state case, not a federal case and it was heard by a jury of 12 citizens, 12 Americans, 12 people like you.
    1. I'm a very innocent man. I'm fighting for our country.
    2. This man who looks like an angel, but he is really a devil.
    3. They're coming in from all over the world into our country, and we have a president and a group of fascists that don't want to do anything about it, because they could right now, today, he could stop it. But he's not. They're destroying our country.
    4. We're going to be appealing this scam (...) on many different things.
    5. Millions and millions of people, pouring into our country right now, from prisons and from mental institutions, terrorists.
    1. I would say that's a classic case of projection.
    1. The goal is to appeal quickly, and hopefully be vindicated quickly.
