<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Biden-Harris campaign immediately began fundraising off the guilty verdict for former President Trump, telling supporters that the legal setback for the presumptive GOP nominee is not enough to keep him out of the White House.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In a text message sent to supporters on Thursday soon after the verdict was in, &#8220;Biden HQ&#8221; said that &#8220;despite a jury finding Donald Trump guilty today, there is still only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: At the ballot box.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Convicted felon or not, Trump will be the Republican nominee for President. But there is one other certainty — as you read this, Donald Trump&#8217;s supporters are fired up and likely setting fundraising records for his campaign,&#8221; the campaign said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The message went on, &#8220;That&#8217;s money he will use to try to get back into the White House to carry out his threats of revenge and retribution against his political opponents. So while the MAGA Right comes to the aid of Trump, Joe Biden &#8212; and those who care about democracy &#8212; need you.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This just proves that despite Biden&#8217;s apparent victory in getting Trump an unprecedented conviction in a Biden-friendly city, in a bluer-than-blue state, by an obviously biased jury – the current President still fears Donald Trump.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Biden was apparently right, however, about Trump fundraising off of the verdict. Soon after the verdict came down, the former President&#8217;s campaign website was updated with a defiant message from Trump, saying he is a &#8220;political prisoner.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I was just convicted in a RIGGED political Witch Hunt trial,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;I DID NOTHING WRONG! They’ve raided my home, arrested me, took my mugshot, AND NOW THEY’VE JUST CONVICTED ME!&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Crooked Joe Biden needs to get the message &#8211; right here, right now &#8211; that his chances of a 2nd term END TODAY,&#8221; the former President added.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Trump called on his supporters through the updated website to donate to his campaign with &#8220;massive&#8221; and &#8220;immediate&#8221; pushback.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Karoline Leavitt a representative for the Trump campaign added that the presumptive Republican presidential nominee was still able to generate “billions of dollars” in media coverage throughout the high-profile trial, as well as host rallies and campaign stops, and “increased his lead over crooked Joe Biden in the polls.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Leavitt also said that now that Trump is no longer tied to the courtroom and can return full time to the campaign trail that Biden, had “better buckle up.”</p>
