"After a day of holding its fire, the Biden campaign late Friday blasted Donald Trump as a ‘convicted felon’ — an indication the president’s team has decided to seize upon Trump’s conviction to question his fitness for the White House,” Axios reports.
“The broadside from Biden’s campaign — in a press release chiding Trump for his ‘unhinged’ rant earlier in the day — put President Biden in the same camp as many Democrats who are now mocking the ex-president.”
“It also marked a departure from Biden’s approach in remarks at the White House hours earlier, when he danced around the ‘convicted felon’ label while criticizing Trump’s attack on the U.S. justice system.”
Yeah, well Cambridge dictionary makes no mention of sentencing: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/convict
And my own lawyer says that sentencing is not required for someone to be considered a convicted felon under US federal law, it’s a status that applies as soon as a conviction is handed down in a Court.
