(Chris Queen – PJ Media) Judge Juan Merchan has sentenced President-elect Donald Trump in a New York NDA case (the so-called “hush money” case). The sentence is an unconditional discharge, which in essence is a sentence in name only.President-elect Trump was spared any punishment for his hush money criminal conviction Friday when a New York judge sentenced him to an unconditional discharge, eschewing jail time while securing his status as the first person convicted of a felony to assume the presidency.
Judge Juan Merchan’s decision to release Trump with no strings attached caps the first and only criminal trial of a former president, less than two weeks before he’s set to return to the White House.
Of course, the most important consequence of the sentencing to leftists is that they can tag Trump with the “convicted felon” canard as he takes office. My RedState colleague Susie Moore tells us that the sentence means “no jail time or other punishment, save the ‘convicted felon’ tag.”
