Trump is not a convicted felon until he's sentenced by Judge Merchan
EDIT:
No, a person is not considered a convicted felon as soon as the jury decides they are guilty. The jury's guilty verdict is a significant step, but the formal conviction status is typically established when the judge accepts the jury's verdict and enters a judgment of conviction.
So did Judge Merchant accept the jury's verdict yet?
