Biden Denies 'Pulling The Strings' In Trump's Criminal Conviction
• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Aldgra FredlyDuring an exchange with a Fox News reporter outside the White House on Friday, President Biden was asked if the criminal conviction helped his political rival in the election, to which he replied: "I have no idea."
Fox News reporter Peter Doocy followed up by asking President Biden if he is concerned about facing criminal charges once his presidential term ends.
"Not at all," the president answered. "I didn't do anything wrong. The system still works."
When asked about President Trump's assertion that he was "pulling the strings behind the scenes" to hurt him politically, President Biden laughed off the claim, saying: "I didn't know I was that powerful."
President Trump was found guilty on May 30 in a case in which he was charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal non-disclosure payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels as part of a bid to influence the 2016 presidential election.
This marks the first criminal conviction of a U.S. president. The former president denounced the verdict outside the courthouse, calling it a "rigged trial" and an attempt by the Biden administration to hurt a political opponent.
"The real verdict is going to be Nov. 5, by the people," President Trump said. "We'll keep fighting, we'll fight to the end, and we'll win."
Minutes after the jury returned the verdict, an avalanche of donations to the Trump presidential campaign caused the donation page to temporarily become unavailable. The following day, the Trump campaign announced a record one-day fundraising haul of nearly $35 million.
Biden Responds to Trump's 'Rigged Trial' Claim
President Biden said Friday that it was "reckless" for the presumptive GOP presidential nominee to call the trial rigged, arguing that the case was heard by a jury of 12 Americans selected through a process in which President Trump's attorney was part of.
"Donald Trump was given every opportunity to defend himself. It was a state case, not a federal case," the president said in a May 31 address at the White House.
"The jury heard five weeks of evidence. And after careful deliberation, the jury reached a unanimous verdict. They found Donald Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts," he added.
