New York Prosecutor Alvin Bragg has agreed to delay the sentencing for President-Elect Trump in the Stormy Daniels hush money trial.
This doesn’t mean that the case was dismissed. The Trump team had asked to delay the sentencing which was supposed to be next week. Alvin Bragg’s team, the prosecution, say that they don’t oppose this.
The Trump team has argued for dismissal based on presidential immunity and Bragg’s filing says that he will oppose that. So he will keep fighting for a win in this case, but maybe with less wind at his back.
Unless Judge Marchan dismisses the case entirely, which he could do.
The President Elect’s team is arguing for dismissal based on presidential immunity but his 6th amendment rights were clearly violated during this trial and there is strong evidence of selective prosecution given that Hillary Clinton was not prosecuted for the same journal entry for the Steele Dossier. I would much rather those things be the grounds for dismissal. Does this mean that the rest of us have to run for president if we are politically prosecuted against our civil rights?
