Trump's lawyers argue that punishing the current Republican nominee in the thick of the campaign to retake the White House would amount to election interference.
But he did the crimes and i don’t see any form of any kind of punishment hitting Trump until now and don’t think we’ll ever see the glorious day the orange gets pealed.
Merchan wrote that he was postponing the sentencing “to avoid any appearance — however unwarranted — that the proceeding has been affected by or seeks to affect the approaching presidential election in which the Defendant is a candidate.”
He doesn’t want it to appear that Trump’s candidacy is affecting the sentencing… So his candidacy will directly affect when the sentencing happens.
The courts need to simply ignore the politics, no matter what they do to try and avoid it they always fall right into the shit because anything a candidate does has a political spin from somewhere. Just ignore it completely, act like the politics isn’t a part of the case, because it isn’t. If the case happens to be occurring during an election, well the candidate shouldn’t have been doing illegal shit in the first place.
Basically if Mr Trump wins then the case just sorta “goes away”. If he loses then the book probably gets thrown at him. I think the judge did it because he doesn’t want the guaranteed retaliation if Trump wins.
If President Convict didn’t want to get punished during his campaign, maybe he shouldn’t have done the crimes.

i cannot believe that these motherfuckers are allowed to argue that this is “election interference”
If this is election interference, then this sets the precedent that literally no candidate could ever be held legally responsible for crimes.
Bullshit
Coward.
WUT

So intimidating his daughter worked.
The judiciary in this country deserves zero respect, top to bottom.
What a coward. Do your goddamn jobs and throw the book at the fucker!
