Biden says 'dangerous' for Trump to claim verdict rigged
President Joe Biden said the guilty verdict in Donald Trump's hush-money trial proved "no is above the law" and called it "reckless" and "dangerous" for people to question the validity of the jury's verdict and the U.S. criminal justice system.

President Joe Biden on Friday criticized Donald Trump for claiming the US justice system was rigged after he was convicted in New York.
"It's dangerous, it's irresponsible, for anyone to say this was rigged just because they don't like the verdict," Biden said at the White House, in his first remarks since the trial verdict.
"Our justice system, the justice system, should be respected. We should never allow anyone to tear it down."
