Everything else is just public perception and the people who've stuck with Trump up until now aren't going to be swayed by a jury finding he committed a sexual assault civil or criminal.

Only saying words matter in the legal sense, many people think he was convicted yesterday, he wasn’t, he can only be held liable in a civil case. The bar for finding someone liable in a civil case is a lot lower than the burden of proof required to secure a criminal conviction and it absolutely, does not count as a criminal record.
Many of his loyalists just see past this as another political hit job. It might knock a few points off his poll numbers, but he’s still way ahead of DeSantis as preferred Republican Nominee.
