Donald Trump lashes out after becoming the first president in US history to be convicted of a crime - with the jury finding the former US president guilty on all counts.

US voters will choose between presumptive Democrat and Republican nominees Joe Biden and Donald Trump in the November presidential election.The polls have been tight so far, with most giving Trump a narrow lead over the current president. An April poll by our US partner network NBC News found Trump held a narrow two-point lead among registered voters.But some surveys taken before his conviction indicate that the result of the trial could well tip the election in Mr Biden's favour.

A poll by market research company Leger on May 3 found that a guilty verdict without imprisonment would given Mr Biden a five-point lead over his rival - rising to eight points if Trump is imprisoned.A separate survey by Marquette Law School Poll also predicted a five-point lead for Mr Biden among voters in the event of a guilty verdict.But 67% of US voters in a PBS/NPR/Marist poll carried out before the verdicts said Trump being found guilty would not change their plan to vote for him.
