By The FirstDonald Trump’s legal case in New York concluded Friday when Judge Juan Merchan sentenced him to “unconditional discharge” after being found guilty on falsifying business records.
“After careful analysis, this court determined only lawful sentence that permits entry of judgment of conviction is an unconditional discharge,” Merchan said Friday. “At this time, I impose that sentence to cover all 34 counts.”
“Sir, I wish you Godspeed as you assume your second term in office,” the judge added.
“This is a great embarrassment to the state of New York,” fired back the President-Elect. “And I would just like to explain that I was treated very, very unfairly. And I thank you very much.”
After the hearing, Trump commented on the sentence via Truth Social.
“The Radical Democrats have lost another pathetic, unAmerican Witch Hunt. After spending tens of millions of dollars, wasting over 6 years of obsessive work that should have been spent on protecting New Yorkers from violent, rampant crime that is destroying the City and State, coordinating with the Biden/Harris Department of Injustice in lawless Weaponization, and bringing completely baseless, illegal, and fake charges against your 45th and 47th President, ME, I was given an UNCONDITIONAL DISCHARGE,” Trump posted.
