Trump asks Supreme Court to block New York hush money sentencing
A sentencing hearing is set for Friday, with Trump saying he is protected by presidential immunity.
Summary
Donald Trump has asked the Supreme Court to block his sentencing in New York’s hush money case, scheduled for Friday.
Trump’s legal team argues presidential immunity, citing a recent Supreme Court ruling shielding certain official acts from prosecution, though it excludes personal actions.
Trump was convicted in May on 34 felony counts for falsifying records tied to hush money payments during the 2016 election.
A New York judge ruled that immunity does not apply until Trump is sworn in.
Prosecutors must respond by Thursday morning.
You're viewing a single thread.
Why even bother trying to stop it?
The judge has stated started that he intends to sentence him to an unconditional discharge, which means they just close the trial and let him walk out of the courthouse.
It just closes the case and lets him off the hook, delaying sentencing would just keep the trial open.As a convicted felon, many countries could refuse him entry.
This would be yet another step in having the entire conviction tossed.
He already has 34 felony convictions, so that bridge is very crispy for him already.
Understood, but today's "SCOTUS" is at his beck and call.
As a convicted felon, many countries could refuse him entry.
No country is going to refuse entry to the President of the United States. I don't care if he committed the Manson family murders.
EDIT: For those who are downvoting me, he's already a convicted felon. Here's a list of countries that would normally deny entry to convicted felons.
Go ahead and let me know when Canada, the UK, Japan, Austrailia, or even China denies Trump entry. Downvotes don't change facts, people. If you're going to downvote, list one country that is going to deny the President of the United States entry because he is a convicted felon. You don't have to like the truth, but downvoting fact-based information doesn't change it.
SCOTUS?
Is that you, John Roberts?
Would it be rhetorical to ask if you're American?
Why would that matter?
Trump has 34 felony convictions. He is a convicted felon. Which countries are going to deny him entry?
Why would it matter?
Because only an American would believe that Trump has the God-like power you've bestowed upon him.
It's sad and pathetic, but explains the SCOTUS prostration.
Then fine. Prove me wrong. Name one fucking country that is going to deny Donald Trump entry.
Saying that any country is going to refuse entry to Trump is little more than copium.
Like, right now?
China. Prove me wrong.
And when has China denied Trump entry?
Where did I say they did?
Ego.
