Trump To Be Sentenced Jan. 10 As Judge Upholds Hush Money Conviction

But yet Clinton skates with his hush money payment.

Whatever the sentencing is, it’ll be appealed and when Trump’s sworn into office, he’ll pardon himself.

This phony baloney case is a State crime, and therefore not subject to a presidential pardon for Federal crimes.

But i'm hoping this corrupt judge will get a Federal case for this blatant attempt to interfere with the election.

He should go there. He should make no deal at all. Not sign anything. And apply to the Supreme Court for immediate action.

what if Trump does not show up for sentencing?

Isn’t this Alvin Braggs case, in which the appeals judges asked the prosecution why they shouldn’t be disbarred for it since nobody else has ever been prosecuted for t h is? The whole hearing was prosecutors begging to not be punished. KATHY HOCHUL SAID NOBODY BUT TRUMP WOULD EVER BE PROSECUTED FOR THIS. How the heck can Merchan still even be thinking about proceeding? Has the appeals court ruled on it yet?

[unlearner]

The only crimes in this case were committed by the prosecuting attorney and judge.

Good question.

Send the federal marshalls after the daughter for election interference and court tampering.

Let’s see how Juan likes watching his daughter hauled off in cuffs.

You all saw what happened in South Korea yesterday when they sent some guys to arrest the impeached president. The “palace guards” shut the whole thing down. What New York LEO’s are going to try to take on Trump’s Secret Service detail?

[Fledermaus]

Worse than miserable.

[damper99]

Maximum Juan will push the envelope. He’ll give Trump jail time and immediately remand him into custody. It’s all part of the democrat effort to prevent Trump from taking office.

[Fledermaus]

Do it anyway. The left would. F them.

No, unleash the DOJ on his daughter. Follow the money, investigate her ties to Harris, the DOJ, and where all the money she raised went. Make it clear that even if she only committed a "process" crime; the DOJ will push for maximum prison time and massive fines. He has to believe the Trump DOJ will look at him and fat boy Bragg. Instead of making it that obvious, go after the daughter who raised funds from the trial.

How the heck can Merchan still even be thinking about proceeding?

I thought the same thing, but for only a nano second. Why wouldn't he just keep on trucking? There is no benefit to him admitting defeat and doing the right thing. If he is worried about his legacy, it's with the craziest of the crazies.

Has the appeals court ruled on it yet?

Not to my knowledge, but again why would they rule if they thought there was a chance they might not have to?

[cowboyusa]

It’s virtual.

Curious what the Constructional implication would be if a NY State court tries to obstruction Federal election results, Can we declare them “insurrectionist” and give them the Jan 6th treatment?

‘This is an FEC issue.’

It’s not.

[forYourChildrenVote4Bush]

Can someone please explain this to me as if I were a retarded liberal ?

[marktwain]

This is a lawfare issue. It will not stand.

President Trump has a decent case to make in suing over wrongful prosecution.

Sue the judge from Florida, where Trump resides.
