Judge Sets Trump's Sentencing in Hush Money Case for January 10
ai generated text
Donald Trump's sentencing in his hush-money case is set for January 10, as per Judge Juan M. Merchan's order. It is indicated that he will not be jailed, making him the first president to take office while convicted of felony crimes. The judge rejected Trump's motion to dismiss the case on presidential immunity grounds, despite his election victory in November.
There should be no sentencing, and President Trump will continue fighting against these hoaxes until they are all dead.
President Trump must be allowed to continue the presidential transition process and to execute the vital duties of the presidency, unobstructed by the remains of this or any remnants of the witch hunts.
Finding no legal impediment to sentencing and recognizing that Presidential immunity will likely attach once Defendant takes his Oath of Office, it is incumbent upon this Court to set this matter down for the imposition of sentence prior to January 20, 2025.
This Court finds that Presidential immunity from criminal process for a sitting president does not extend to a President-elect.
The Constitution dictates that only a President, after taking the oath of office, has the authority of the Chief Executive, a President-elect does not.
The court's inclination [is] to not impose any sentence of incarceration, a sentence authorised by the conviction but one the people concede they no longer view as a practicable recommendation.
The primary issue before this Court is: whether a President-elect must be afforded the same immunity protections from a state prosecution as a sitting President? This issue, as far as this Court can discern, is without precedent.
