Donald Trump’s lawyers have asked for the former president’s conviction in his hush-money criminal case to be overturned and his sentencing this month delayed, US media report.
A letter sent by Trump’s lawyers to the New York judge presiding over the trial reportedly cites Monday’s Supreme Court ruling that granted the former president immunity from prosecution for official actions he took while in office.
In May, Trump was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records. He will be sentenced on 11 July.
His team points out that he signed off the records while president in 2017, but one lawyer suggested this was unlikely to be considered an official act.
The Federalist Society is the actual “swamp”/deepstate. Just look at them ruling from the highest bench in the nation. They are kingmakers and drain the swamp was just another projected lie.
