【The Pursuit of Lust 4 (2024)】

It's official: Donald J. Trump,The Pursuit of Lust 4 (2024) former president of the United States of America and current Republican candidate for the presidency, is a convicted felon.

Reporters had earlier expected the jury wouldn't reach a verdict for another day at least.
