ChainCatcher news, according to CNN, Donald Trump's lawyer Todd Branch is now defending the president-elect, saying he disagrees with the prosecutor's point of view.

Todd Branch said, "The legal team intends to appeal the verdict, strongly disagrees with most of what the government just said about this case, and disagrees with the legality of what happened in the court during the trial. This is a very sad day. It is a sad day for President Trump, his family and friends, and it is also a sad day for this country."
