Trump's website features mug shot from Georgia case
Trump's website has been updated to reflect the guilty verdict, reiterating his claims that he is a "political prisoner" and featuring the mug shot taken when he turned himself in to Georgia authorities in a separate case.
"Never surrender" is written in bold under the photo.
The site also features the same fundraising message that was promoted on social media after the verdict.
"My end-of-month fundraising deadline is just DAYS AWAY!" the website also says.
Analysis: Verdict is a 'resounding victory' for prosecution
The guilty verdict is a resounding victory for prosecutors in a case they pitched as something far greater than about hush money.
They tried to cast the case as being about the subversion of democracy, and today, the jury agreed with them.

Democratic lawmakers' reactions pour in
A slew of Democratic lawmakers are weighing in with reaction to the verdict.
Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., said on X that "the jury has spoken," adding, "Justice has prevailed." Clyburn is often credited with delivering Biden's 2020 campaign a vital boost during the primary season.
Progressive Reps. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., and Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., both said on X that "no one" is "above the law."
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., also touted the decision on X.
"Despite his efforts to distract, delay, and deny — justice arrived for Donald Trump all the same," he said. "And the rule of law prevailed."
Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., wrote on X, "Justice has prevailed!"
Biden campaign on Trump verdict: ‘No one is above the law’
President Joe Biden’s campaign declared “no one is above the law” in a statement released just minutes after former President Donald Trump was convicted in a New York courtroom.
“Donald Trump has always mistakenly believed he would never face consequences for breaking the law for his own personal gain,” Biden campaign spokesman Michael Tyler said in a statement. “But today’s verdict does not change the fact that the American people face a simple reality.”
At the same time as it reacted to the verdict in New York, the Biden campaign underscored messaging it teased last week: that voters should wake up to the possibilities of another Trump term. That means, the campaign says, getting supporters involved in Democratic campaigns and fundraisers to stop Trump in November — and getting them to stop expecting that Trump will somehow go away because of the myriad trials he faces.
‘Phony’ checks and hush money payments: Breaking down all 34 charges against Trump
Jurors are deliberating for the second day in former President Donald Trump's hush money trial.

Donald Trump Jr. reacts to guilty verdict of his father
Donald Trump Jr., the former president's eldest son, issued a series of posts on X, calling the jury's verdict “such bulls---” and election interference.
“Guilty on all counts. The Democrats have succeeded in their years long attempt to turn America into a third-world s---hole. November 5 is our last chance to save it," he wrote.
“Sentencing is 4 days before the GOP Convention...They’re not even trying to hide the ELECTION INTERFERENCE!!!!”

Looking back at Trump’s 6 weeks in court at the first criminal trial of a former president
For nearly every day of Donald Trump’s Manhattan hush money trial, photographers have captured a grimacing Trump seated at the defense table, a former U.S. president for the first time facing criminal charges in an American courtroom.
The judge, jurors and witnesses are not allowed to be photographed, but for most of the proceedings, pool photographers have been brought into the courtroom to photograph Trump as the day in court gets underway. They have captured his handwritten notes, such as when Trump, as closing arguments got underway, scrawled in black marker on a yellow sticky note affixed to a list of quotes about the trial, “This case should be dismissed by the judge.”
From the trial’s start through Wednesday, Getty Images tagged nearly 13,000 images with “Donald Trump New York.” Here are 62 of the most representative photos.
Donald Trump was convicted on felony charges. Will he go to prison?
A New York jury’s historic conviction of Donald Trump on felony charges means his fate is now in the hands of the judge he’s repeatedly ripped as “corrupt” and “incompetent.”
Two experts told NBC News that it’s unlikely Trump will be imprisoned based on his age, lack of a criminal record and other factors — and an analysis of thousands of cases found that very few people charged with the same crime receive jail time. But a third expert told NBC News he believes it is “substantially” likely Trump could end up behind bars.
Trump was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records, a class E felony that is punishable by a fine, probation or up to four years in prison. During the trial, Judge Juan Merchan threatened to put Trump behind bars for violating his gag order, but it’s unclear if the former president will face similar consequences now.
