Convicted felon Donald Trump is already hatching how he can exact retribution against any number of foes that led him to be convicted of all 34 counts of falsifying business records involving hush money payments to an adult film star.
Jack O’Donnell, who served as Trump's President and COO of the Trump Plaza Hotel, conjured the boiling fury that he suspects is boiling in the 45th president's head now that he's been found guilty on Thursday.
"I believe very strongly that he switched from the disappointments, so to speak, and the shock of being convicted into his fighting mode," he said while appearing on CNN. "You knew Trump's was going to go on and revenge tour if he's reelected."

In fact, he said, the supposed injustice done to Trump will only fuel his vengeance.
"That has been raised exponentially at this point. Because he is thinking right now, 'How do I get even with the people that did this to me?' That's been his M.O. That's kind of what got him into this trouble by going after people, but believing he's thinking in a revenge mode already."

Trump earned the inglorious feat of becoming the first former president to be convicted of felony crimes on Thursday with a New York jury of his peers finding him unanimously guilty of cooking up a scheme to pay off Stormy Daniels and hide those payments by falsifying business records.
The moment shook O'Donnell for a variety of ways.
"I'll be honest, I was shocked because it is really, having watched decades of an organization that was run corruptly and never being held accountable," he explained. "It finally happened."
For O'Donnell, Trump managed to dodge so many consequences and now his reputation was tarnished.
"So it was shocking to see this man was not above the law for the first time in his life," he said. "And he's going to be held accountable."
