Washington, D.C. – Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) today released the following statement regarding Donald Trump’s comments after the former president’s felony conviction:

“The undeniable fact is Donald Trump went through the same legal process that all Americans go through, he was tried according to the facts and the law, and he was found guilty by a jury of his peers. He’s now a convicted felon.
