The ex-president is now a convicted felon.
The guilty verdict in Donald Trump’s Manhattan criminal trial injects an explosive and unpredictable new variable into a presidential race locked in stasis, distinguished primarily by voter frustrations with their choice of two well-known and unpopular major candidates.
Presidential campaign strategists in both parties agree that the guilty verdict provides a new opening for Biden, whose lacklustre performance and sagging poll numbers are a source of rising concern among many Democratic lawmakers and party officials. “It would be malpractice not to fully lean into the verdict,” said Alex Conant, a Republican strategist and veteran of Marco Rubio’s 2016 presidential campaign. “I’d expect President Biden to give a major address and have Democratic officials fan the country and do everything possible to make the race a referendum on Trump.
“Trump can’t win with just his people,” Carville said. “And it will definitely have a blocking effect on everyone else.”
