You’ve missed my point. The media got this badly wrong in their enthusiasm for the Democrats, and now as a face saver and rather than concentrate on Trump’s spectacular win against the odds, they cannot resist pointing out that he is a ‘convicted felon’.
We all knew that, so why repeat it now? Biden may be joining that popular club soon as well, by the way.

What’s more, his sentencing hearing in front of Judge Merchan is coming up on 26 November and a jail term is possible. Fun times ahead.

Don’t under-estimate the lengths Trump will go to in order to get out of that. He might even go so far as to grant New York independence!
