Jonathan Turley on The Trump Sentencing: Curtain to Fall on Merchan’s Hamlet on the Hudson

"As predicted, the two federal cases never saw a trial in Florida or Washington, D.C. In Georgia, Fani Willis was dropped from her racketeering case, which has gone nowhere due to her own misconduct. It is like the Allied forces launching the Normandy Invasion to capture Monaco."  JT

Trump Sentenced to Unconditional Discharge in New York Hush Money Case

"Trump won’t face punishment, but will be labeled a felon." Which the TV leftists will savor as they recite those words slowly.

Jonathan Turley on The Trump Sentencing: Curtain to Fall on Merchan’s Hamlet on the Hudson  "Below is my column in the Hill on the sentencing this week of President-Elect Donald Trump in Manhattan. Judge Juan Merchan waited to schedule the hearing for just ten days before the inauguration, limiting the time available to appeal. His order suggests that, if there is any interruption or delay in his sentencing, he might follow the advice of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and suspend sentencing for four years, a terrible option that we previously discussed. One could call that passively aggressive, but it seems quite actively aggressive.

"Here is the column: . . 

."But the whole point of a trophy-kill case is the trophy itself. Merchan will not disappoint. While indicating that he is inclined to a sentence without jail or probation, he will finalize the conviction of Trump just 10 days before his inauguration. In so doing, he will formally label the president-elect a convicted felon."

 Disappointment from the Supreme Court  

. . ."This very disappointing order will present us with the spectacle of one of the most corrupt, if not the most corrupt, and unethical “judges” — a word I put in quotation marks to express the deep disdain I hold for this person, who has been referred to as the Captain Ahab of the Judiciary — passing judgment on the former and future president of the United States solely for the purpose of giving the Democrat party its “pound of flesh.” . . .

 Trump's Surprisingly Mellow Response to SCOTUS Decision on Sentencing

. . ."Presently, there's a pending interlocutory appeal on the immunity issue, and once Trump has been sentenced, there will be a direct appeal of the judgment and sentence as well. The ultimate resolution of the matter may be months — if not years — away. But for all the effort expended to "get Trump," what they got was a second Trump presidency."  Susie Moore   Also here.
