"It's over Johnny, it's over...........
IT AIN'T OVER!!!"

Where is @LafayetteBear ? I can't believe he's hiding from it. His cult failed. Absolutely, unequivocally FAILED..... He should be man enough to come back to recognize that reality.

The hush-money case against Donald Trump is moving inexorably towards its final resting place — back on the same scrap heap it came from. But the DA’s office isn’t quite ready to give up just yet. In a court filing this week, prosecutors conceded that Trump’s sentencing should be postponed while the parties litigate whether he has constitutional immunity, along with other novel issues arising from his status as president-elect. That part is entirely reasonable.

But the marvel is that prosecutors somehow managed to type the following sentence without using Comic Sans font: “Consideration must be given to various non-dismissal options that may address any concerns raised by the pendency of a posttrial criminal proceeding during the presidency, such as deferral of all remaining criminal proceedings until after the end of Defendant’s upcoming presidential term.” In other words, the DA argues, we might still want to sentence this guy after he’s done with his second term as president. In 2029.

This is not a serious request. There’s no black-letter law here; once again, Trump has put us firmly in the land of wild law-school hypotheticals come to life. But there’s no precedent for postponing a sentencing for four-plus years after a conviction. To the contrary, New York law requires that sentencing be held “without undue delay.”
