NEW YORK — A Manhattan jury found former President Donald Trump guilty on all counts in his hush money trial​ and made him the first former U.S. president convicted of a crime.

Mr. Trump, who faces up to four years in jail for each count, is sure to appeal the verdict. He says the case is a charade to thwart his run for president, noting prosecutors sat on the case for years before procuring an indictment.

The appeal would likely forestall jail time or other penalties.
