The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office says it is open to delaying Donald Trump’s sentencing to brief his motion to set aside his criminal conviction on business fraud charges in the wake of Monday’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity.

The prospect of a delay in sentencing means that the former president is likely to escape any concrete punishment for his felony conviction before accepting the Republican presidential nomination later this month, at the same time that Trump’s election bid has been boosted by President Joe Biden’s debate flop that has Democrats wondering whether to replace their nominee.

Trump is currently scheduled to be sentenced on July 11.

“Although we believe defendant’s arguments to be without merit, we do not oppose his request for leave to file and his putative request to adjourn sentencing pending determination of his motion. We respectfully request a deadline of July 24, 2024—two weeks after defendant’s requested deadline—to file and serve a response,” the DA said in a letter Tuesday.

2. And the public is open to sentencing him A.S.A.P.

Stick him in prison with no bail while he appeals just like any other common criminal who expresses no remorse.
