The Campaign Moment: The politics of the Trump guilty verdict

It’s Friday, so it’s time for The Campaign Moment — our weekly roundtable conversation to help you keep track of the biggest developments of the 2024 campaign. This week is a special episode dedicated to the questions raised by having a presidential candidate and former U.S. president who is now a felon. Senior political reporter Aaron Blake, who writes The Post's new Campaign Moment newsletter, and Ashley Parker, his colleague on the politics team, sit down with Post Reports co-host Elahe Izadi.  They talk about the politics of Donald Trump’s guilty verdict, how Republicans and Democrats are reacting to it, and the politicization of the rule of law.  Today’s show was produced and mixed by Ted Muldoon. It was edited by Renita Jablonski and Mary Jo Murphy.  Subscribe to Aaron’s newsletter, The Campaign Moment, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/newsletters/campaign-moment/?method=NMP_SURL&amp;&amp;utm_source=podcasts&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=post-reports;location=podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);" target="_blank">here</a>. Subscribe to The Washington Post <a href="https://subscribe.washingtonpost.com/acquisition/?s_l=OFFSITE_PODCAST&amp;p=s_v&amp;s_dt=yearly&amp;utm%5B%E2%80%A6%5De-podcast&amp;utm_medium=acq-nat&amp;utm_campaign=podcast-subs" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);" target="_blank">here</a>.
