Trump sentencing: Legal experts warn NY v. Trump will be remembered as ‘one of the worst’ in world

The sentencing of President-elect Donald Trump in the NY v. Trump case has sparked outrage among attorneys and legal experts, who are calling it one of the worst cases in history. The case, which culminated in Trump being sentenced to unconditional discharge just days before his inauguration, has been condemned as a political witch hunt designed to tarnish his reputation.

Fox News host Mark Levin called the sentencing an “absolute injustice” and criticized the court for its handling of the case. Civil rights attorney Leo Terrell, who was recently appointed as senior counsel to the assistant attorney general for civil rights at the Department of Justice, also slammed the case as a blatant attempt to stop Trump from becoming the 47th president.

Despite the sentencing, Trump has vowed to appeal the conviction, citing evidence that implicates his duties as president during his first term. The Supreme Court’s ruling in July, which granted former presidents substantial immunity from prosecution for official acts in office, has bolstered Trump’s confidence that justice will prevail in his favor.

Legal experts have raised concerns about the handling of the case by Judge Juan Merchan, with many questioning the fairness of the trial. Fox News contributor Trey Gowdy criticized the court for wasting precious resources on a case that even the prosecution agreed should not have been pursued. Legal scholar Jonathan Turley compared Merchan’s remarks to Mary Shelley’s “Dr. Frankenstein,” suggesting that the case was stitched together from dubious charges.

As Trump prepares to appeal the conviction, he has been met with widespread support from his supporters, who have taken to the streets to protest the sentencing. Trump’s legal team has filed multiple motions to block the sentencing, but their efforts have been rejected by the courts.

Despite the setbacks, Trump remains determined to fight the case and clear his name. He has vowed to continue his legal battle, confident that justice will ultimately prevail. As the legal saga continues to unfold, the NY v. Trump case is shaping up to be one of the most contentious and divisive in recent memory.
