It is 34 counts, but still only a single crime. It is more analgous to robbing a single house once, but taking 34 items. Given how the bussiness records law are written, each false record is a seperate crime, but they were all done as part of the same scheme.
This is pretty common in criminal law. It is suprisingly difficult to commit only 1 crime.
Will be very interesting to see what the sentencing end up being, Trump really doesn’t seem to have done himself any favours there by constantly attacking the judge, jury and judges family.

It won’t matter. Maga fascist chuds will start the threats and everyone will back down
The same was said about him being convicted or not, and we haven’t seen the threats materialize since the verdict was announced.
Are you serious? There have been threats against judges.
