Judge Merchan went and did it; he delayed Trump's sentencing until September.
Why? What reason did he have to do this? I mean, if Trump is guilty why not sentence him today?
No doubt Merchan wants to pull Trump out of circulation just before the election. And he wants to wait to see how best to handle this, now that SCOTUS has pulled the rug out on much of what he convicted Trump for.
See,if the Democrats might have to change candidates and Merchan wants to make sure Trump is still in place. If he's in prison when the election is held the Democrats will win.
And I do not know but does this keep Trump from an expedited appeal? I suspect it does. I suspect it prevents Trump from taking any sort of action to clear his name until he is sentenced. Until then Merchan remains in control of the case.
At any rate Merchan just moved the date. Given how horriby biased he has been I can assure you it was no favor to Trump's lawyers nor obeisance to the law.
