What has Trump done since the conviction?
Donald Trump was convicted on August 3, 2023, for federal criminal charges stemming from his plots to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Since his conviction, Trump has pleaded not guilty in a Washington, DC, federal courthouse and has faced new charges in a superseding indictment related to classified documents. He has also been indicted in June 2023 by a federal grand jury in Miami for taking classified national defense documents from the White House after he left office.
In the aftermath of his conviction, Trump has continued to proclaim his innocence and has railed against the federal criminal charges he faces over his efforts to remain in the White House after losing the 2020 election. Trump's legal team is expected to continue fighting the charges, and the cases are expected to play out over the coming months in the courts.
