WASHINGTON — Congressman Jared Golden (ME-02) released the following statement tonight following former President Donald Trump’s conviction by a New York jury on 34 counts of felony falsification of business records.
“In this case, former President Trump has had his day in court and has been found guilty by a jury of his peers. I respect the jury’s decision,” Golden said. “As to the many questions I’ve received about the politics of this decision, let me say this: As of today, Donald Trump is the Republican candidate for president. I have no doubt that information about this verdict will feature in the campaign. I trust the people of Maine with their votes.”
