'NYC judge's sentencing of Trump has 'backfired spectacularly' according to legal analyst.'
The NYC case against Trump was a "lawfare" campaign to tarnish his reputation as a felon, according to Gregg Jarrett on 'Fox & Friends'.
On "Fox & Friends" Monday, Gregg Jarrett, a legal analyst for Planet Chronicle, stated that Judge Juan Merchan is "eager to tarnish" President-elect Trump's reputation as a "convicted felon" before the inauguration. Jarrett criticized New York officials for focusing on Trump while crime rates in the state remain high.
GREGG JARRETT: Merchan is determined to tarnish the incoming president with the label of a convicted felon, despite the fact that under the law, Trump is not officially convicted until he is formally sentenced. Many in the media, however, incorrectly labeled him as a convicted felon following the jury verdict.
The goal of indicting Trump and putting him on trial was to destroy him through politically driven lawfare. However, the opposite effect occurred as voters recognized it as a corrupt weaponization of the law and backfired spectacularly.
The sham trial and preordained outcome drove many Americans to Donald Trump, who won. This is one of the reasons why George Soros-funded progressive district attorneys have ruined major cities in blue states.
Alvin Bragg is a prime example of how a misdemeanor business records violation can be transformed into a phantom felony by Trump. Despite the lack of clarity, it is considered a bedrock violation.
Alvin Bragg, the new district attorney of New York City, targets Good Samaritans and politicians for different reasons.
On Friday, New York Judge Juan Merchan denied President-elect Trump's bid to overturn his conviction in the criminal hush money case. The judge rejected Trump's request to vacate the verdict based on the Supreme Court's decision on presidential immunity. Sentencing is scheduled for January 10 at 9:30 a.m, and the president-elect has the option to appear in person or virtually. However, Merchan stated that he will not sentence the president-elect to prison.
In November, Bragg requested that Judge Juan Merchan stay the case until the end of Trump's second term. However, Trump's attorneys pointed out that the Office of Legal Counsel in the Justice Department concluded that "the categorical prohibition on the federal indictment of a sitting president, even if the case were held in abeyance, applies to this situation."
The suggestion that they could resume proceedings after President Trump leaves office, more than a decade after commencing their investigation in 2018, is not an option, as Bragg stated.
The case would not have been brought if it were not for Trump's political views, the national movement he established, and the political threat he poses to corrupt politicians in Washington, D.C. and beyond.
