Donald Trump‘s sentencing has been delayed once again … with a New York judge ruling the Republican nominee won’t be sentenced until after this year’s election.
The 45th POTUS’ sentencing trial is now scheduled for November 26 — three weeks after voters will cast their ballots — changed from the original September 18 date.
Judge Juan Merchan made the decision Friday, granting DJT’s request for a delayed sentence after originally pushing the decision from July to September in order to consider whether a Supreme Court ruling gives Trump broad immunity in this case.
Merchan was supposed to rule on the immunity question on September 16 — just two days before sentencing — and, Trump’s lawyers reportedly argued they needed more time between the two rulings.
