House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., in May, wrote in a post on X, fomerly Twitter, that "the jury has spoken and carefully rendered a decision. Responsible leadership requires the verdict to be respected," while Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York said that "nobody is above the law."
However, Democrats appeared less reactive to Friday's sentencing, which left Trump free of any penalty.
One Democratic congresswoman put out a statement following the unconditional discharge sentence, claiming that "our system of justice is not just."
