Trump wants to delay sentencing in hush money case until after election.

Donald Trump, the current President of the United States, has been embroiled in a legal battle over hush money payments made to women who allegedly had affairs with him. According to recent reports, Trump is seeking to delay his sentencing in the ‘hush money’ case until after the upcoming presidential election. This move has sparked controversy and speculation about the President’s motives and the potential implications it could have on the election.

The ‘hush money’ case dates back to 2016 when Trump’s former attorney, Michael Cohen, paid adult film actress Stormy Daniels $130,000 to keep quiet about her alleged affair with Trump. Cohen pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations in connection with the payments and was sentenced to three years in federal prison. Trump has denied the affair and any wrongdoing in the case.

Now, as the presidential election draws near, Trump’s legal team is reportedly seeking to postpone his sentencing in the ‘hush money’ case until after the election. The argument presented by Trump’s lawyers is that allowing his sentencing to proceed before the election could influence the outcome of the election and potentially harm Trump’s chances of winning a second term.

This move has raised concerns among legal experts and political commentators who argue that delaying the sentencing could be a blatant attempt to manipulate the justice system for personal and political gain. Critics of Trump have accused him of using his presidential powers to evade accountability and avoid facing the consequences of his actions.

However, Trump’s supporters have defended his decision to seek a delay in sentencing, arguing that he deserves a fair trial and due process under the law. They believe that Trump should not be unfairly targeted or punished for actions that occurred before he became President.

As the legal battle over the ‘hush money’ case continues to unfold, the American public is closely watching to see how it will impact the upcoming election. Trump’s handling of the case and his attempts to delay sentencing could potentially sway undecided voters and influence the outcome of the election.

Regardless of the outcome of the ‘hush money’ case, one thing is clear – the controversy surrounding Trump’s alleged affairs and the payments made to keep them quiet will continue to be a focal point in the election campaign. The American people will ultimately have the final say in November, as they cast their votes and decide whether Trump deserves a second term in office.
