Statement on New York v. Donald Trump Verdict

May 30, 2024

"Today's verdict is a win for our justice system and a signal that no one is above the law, not even former presidents. At the core of our country's legal system is the idea that a person must be held accountable for their actions, regardless of their political career."

"I applaud Judge Juan Merchan's oversight of this trial and his pursuit of the rule of law. I know emotions may run high in the aftermath of this verdict, and I urge everyone to remain calm as our justice system continues its work." - Aaron D. Ford
