Former President Donald Trump's legal team has taken strides to appeal the 34 felony convictions he received due to a verdict delivered recently in the so-called `hush money` case in Manhattan. As per the report from Fox News' Eric Shawn, the appeal process will not be a cakewalk for Trump, particularly due to the glaring political bias within New York's heavily Democratic milieu, which includes the appointment of appeals court justices.

Eric Shawn, while addressing 'America’s Newsroom' on Tuesday, unfolded the story around Trump's appeal. He pointed out that the New York State appellate court's first division, which is going to hear Trump's appeal, has a number of justices who have made campaign contributions to the Democratic party in the past.

'Of the 21 justices on this appellate court, one alone was not appointed by a New York Democratic governor,' Shawn observed. 'Federal and state campaign records reveal that at least 14 out of the 21 justices have made campaign donations to Democrats previously'. This observation throws light on the potential political bias in the court's composition.

Shawn also emphasized on the fact that some of the justices made these campaign contributions while serving on the lower court. The inclusion of Justice Marsha Michael, who was appointed by Governor Hochul only eight months ago, was also contemplated in his insights shared on the national broadcast.
