He is still supposed to be sentenced on the 26th of this month. Since it was not a Federal prosecution there is no prohibition against sentencing him to home confinement or whatever. After the American voters said it was not disqualifying I find it unimaginable that the sentence will be anything more than a slap on the wrist.

I would not bet against his spirit finding some way to skate even up there.

Judge delays decision on tossing Trump’s hush money conviction

Quote:
The judge overseeing Donald Trump's New York criminal trial delayed a key ruling Tuesday on whether the president-elect's conviction should be set aside, according to correspondence between the parties.

Trump’s team wants the case dismissed, and the prosecution says it needs time to evaluate next steps now that Trump has been elected for a second term. The court has granted them a week's delay to provide their position, the clerk informed both sides in a court filing.

In a letter to Judge Juan Merchan, prosecutors said they agreed with Trump's request for a stay to consider how to proceed given his new status as president-elect.

"The People agree that these are unprecedented circumstances and that the arguments raised by defense counsel in correspondence to the People on Friday require careful consideration to ensure that any further steps in this proceeding appropriately balance the competing interests of (1) a jury verdict of guilt following trial that has the presumption of regularity; and (2) the Office of the President," prosecutor Matthew Colangelo wrote in a letter to the judge.

Accordingly, the People respectfully request that the Court adjourn the upcoming scheduled dates to afford the People time to assess these recent developments, and set November 19. 2024 as a deadline for the People to advise the Court regarding our view of appropriate steps," he added.

In response, Merchan's clerk said the joint request for a stay had been granted, and ordered prosecutors from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office to state their position by 10 a.m. on the 19th.

Trump had been tentatively scheduled to be sentenced on Nov. 26, and it’s unclear when or if the judge would proceed with the sentencing.

Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung celebrated the development in a statement, noting that Merchan has "now stayed all previously scheduled deadlines, including sentencing in this case."

He said Trump's election makes it "abundantly clear that Americans want an immediate end to the weaponization of our justice system, including this case, which should have never been filed."

Hitler had served a prison sentence for sedition, but ended up leader of Germany.

His winning an election doesn't negate the jury's decision, it only circumvents it.

I would have expected news of Trump's nominees to have been an Onion headline.

Figured it out, it s a Trump tactic:You present the most outrageous people first , with bad legal records, figuring ,noone in congress would approve, then you put forth the real ones you want ,and even if some of the first round gets to be in his cabinet, They would be massively grateful to Trump....actually, its just more of a hunch ..?
( is he hiring a bunch of Yes men ? )

They voted that a a guilty verdict in a hush money case is not disqualifying to be President.
