GRA: This is politico being a crybaby about President Trump winning the election.
“new york — Donald Trump’s victory means the nation’s first convicted-criminal-turned-president-elect is headed for the white house instead of a prison cell.
“That’s because Trump’s nov. 26 sentencing hearing in the hush money case almost certainly won’t happen.
“‘I think any reasonable judge wouldn’t sentence the president-elect,’ said Jill Konviser, a retired new york trial judge.
“imposing a sentence now — even a non-prison sentence like home confinement, probation or community service — would interfere with the soon-to-be president’s duties, legal experts say.”
[N.S.: And those would be the same “legal experts” who celebrated the malicious prosecutions and show trials their comrades put the President through.]
“in theory, the judge who presided over the hush money trial, justice Juan Merchan, could try to proceed with the sentencing as scheduled and order that any sentence be deferred until 2029, when Trump will complete his term. but even that would pose problems, as Trump’s lawyers are sure to argue that hauling the president-elect into a state courtroom in the middle of the presidential transition would impede the orderly transfer of power.
“meanwhile special prosecutor, Jack Smith is reportedly winding down his other two cases on the grounds of doj policy that prohibits a sitting president from being prosecuted for perceived criminal activity.”
