An eccentric assortment of the ex-president’s most enthusiastic supporters assembled outside Trump Tower a day after he was found guilty of falsifying business records
He committed fraud (falsifying business records to pay Cohen) in furtherance of election interference (Killing multiple stories that would have been detrimental to his campaign (Pecker explicitly states this as the reason), and then hiding the payments is a kind of campaign contribution which was not disclosed) crimes. So yes, it actually does have something to do with the election. Just the 2016 election. It was rigged. Because he tried to rig it.

I may be high on parentheticals.
It really, really pisses me off that the Trump people have been able to successfully re-frame this as “he was tried over cheating on his wife.”
which is hilarious, because it’s well documented that he’s cheated on each of his wives. He’s quite Gingrichy.
I like how they’re split on whether or not they admit he slept with Stormy Daniels.
He didn’t sleep with her. But when he did, it was consensual.
