Despite the conviction, Trump remains the presumptive Republican nominee for the upcoming presidential election.

Despite the conviction, Trump could theoretically continue to run in the presidential election to be held in November.

However, the sentence determining the punishment Trump will receive for this conviction will be decided on July 11th.

This is a very dramatic day in American politics.
