Judge Delays Trump’s Sentencing Until Nov. 26, After Election Day

The decision by Justice Juan M. Merchan means voters will be left in the dark about whether the former president will face time behind bars.

It wouldn’t be fair to have your felony conviction negatively impact your opportunities. This is how justice works right?

    You’re correct on all those points.

    The take by the legal experts back while the trial was ongoing all said with no priors and it being nonviolent crime that none of them expected him to see prison.

    But if we never get him convicted of any crimes, it won’t matter very much.

      Texhnicslly, if we never see him sentenced for his convictions it won’t matter. He has 34 convictions.

        If there’s no sentence, was there a point to a trial?

        This whole circus is held up on the fact the Supreme Court is entertaining the idea that any of the things he’s charged with (or convicted of) can pass as him doing the job he was elected to do.

        If he wins, this sentencing date will never come, and neither will any of the others. His acts will be officially sanctioned, and the only ones being sentenced will be us.

          I agree completely, just wanted to make sure it was clear that he has been convicted.

            Understood. I could have expressed that better.
