Former President Trump is scheduled to sit for a virtual interview on Monday with a New York City probation officer from his home at Mar-a-Lago with his attorney Todd Blanche at his side after he was found guilty on all counts in the hush money trial against him last month, three sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.

Duncan Levin, a former Manhattan prosecutor turned defense attorney, said the prosecution is likely to ask for jail time.

“To the extent that an E felony is punishable by jail, this case screams out for jail time, he has shown no remorse and has been held in contempt 10 times, but the judge warned him if he breaks the gag order I will send you to jail and then he did it again several times,” Levin said. “And subverting the election process is as serious a records violation as has ever come through the New York courts.”

“subverting the election process” ???

[DocRock]

“And subverting the election process is as serious a records violation as has ever come through the New York courts.”

What election process? The November 8, 2016 Presidential election? Because Cohen paid Daniels on October 27 and Trump reimbursed him on February 14, 2017, long after the election was over. So the alleged record violation could not have possibly subverted the election. He signed the checks while he was in the white house. The supposed records violation is not possible.

Not sure about MaraLago. Trump usually has moved to Bedminster NJ by this time of year.

[joshua c]

is there going to be a hearing on the mistrial?

shouldnt that come first?

[Sacajaweau]

This makes no sense...A probation officer saying what the penalty should be??

[vivenne]

That says it all.

[delchiante]

Going to be nice to see how they fit in the NYC parole officer meetings in between his Chief Executive duties as President..

[cableguymn]

That’s been dismissed as a internet prank
