Donald Trump’s conviction shows that “no one is above the law”, his election rival President Joe Biden’s campaign said.

“In New York today, we saw that no one is above the law,” Biden-Harris campaign communications director Michael Tyler said in a statement.

“But today’s verdict does not change the fact that the American people face a simple reality. There is still only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: at the ballot box.”
