Summary
New York judge Juan Merchan denied Donald Trump’s request to delay his sentencing on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, set for January 10, 2025, just 10 days before his inauguration.
Trump argued for a delay based on pending immunity appeals, but the court rejected the claim, citing repetitive arguments and delays caused by Trump himself.
Prosecutors noted the timing avoids potential legal complications during his presidency.
The judge plans to sentence Trump to an unconditional discharge, leaving him a convicted felon without further punishment.
The case involves hush money payments from 2016.
Simple: the Founding Fathers never envisaged that a convicted felon would ever have the balls to run for president, much less that anybody would be stupid enough to vote for one, because it’s fucking insane.
Turns out all you need is racism, stupidity, and a massive propaganda machine. I’d like to thank the 150 million idiots who made this possible. I’ll be thinking of you all when the 2nd Great Depression pops off with some sprinkles of pandemic 2.0 on top.
