Donald Trump’s Legal Troubles
Donald Trump will be sentenced on January 10 in his secret payment case in New York, just before he is sworn in as president. Judge Juan Merchan indicated that Trump will receive “conditional release,” without imprisonment, probation, or a fine. Trump tried to dismiss the case after winning the election, but was convicted of falsifying business records related to the payment to Stormy Daniels. Trump denies any wrongdoing and claims the case is a political attack to harm his 2024 presidential campaign. He criticized the judge’s decision on social media, calling it a rigged trick. The judge suggested delaying the sentence until after Trump leaves office or ensuring a sentence without imprisonment. Despite Trump’s arguments about presidential immunity and attempts to dismiss the case, the judge ruled in favor of conviction. Trump faces other criminal cases related to secret documents and attempts to overturn the 2020 election. Legal experts believe that Trump is unlikely to end up in prison due to his age and legal history. As Trump prepares to take office, he continues to fight charges and may appeal the conviction after sentencing.
