As they prepare for a Republican trifecta in Washington, the Dems remain eerily silent on Trump's sentencing.

Despite previously commenting on the cases against President-elect Donald Trump, democratic lawmakers remained silent following his sentencing. Washington is preparing for a Republican trifecta in Congress.

On Friday, Trump was convicted of 34 charges related to falsifying business records in May.

The president was found not guilty and received an unconditional discharge, meaning he will not face any penalties or probation time. He retains the right to appeal the conviction.

Following Trump's conviction in criminal court in May, Democratic congress members reacted on social media, but were silent after the sentencing on Friday, which took place just before his inauguration on January 20th.

In May, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., wrote on Twitter that "the jury has spoken and carefully rendered a decision. Responsible leadership requires the verdict to be respected," while Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York said that "nobody is above the law."

Trump was spared any penalty after being sentenced on Friday, which Democrats seemed less reactive to.

One Democratic congresswoman asserted that "our system of justice is not fair" after the unconditional discharge sentence.

In this country, there is a two-tiered system of justice, with Donald Trump residing on the tier that allows him to enter the White House without serving any time in jail or being put on probation despite being convicted of 34 felonies. On the other hand, the clients that Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, represented as a public defender, such as the seventeen-year-old boy who was held on felony probation for stealing candy from his school's concession stand, are on a different tier.

"The scales are not equal," she added.

On the flip side, Republicans were very vocal following the sentencing.

"Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., stated that he has no respect for the process being used in New York and that the judge and prosecutor's motives are politically driven. He called it a 'sad day for America.'"

Before being sentenced, Trump stated that he would challenge the verdict.

On Wednesday, Trump submitted an emergency petition to the Supreme Court in an attempt to halt his January 10th sentencing, but the court ultimately rejected his request.
