Judge Juan Merchan
President Trump ripped crooked judge Juan Merchan after he upheld the 34 felony convictions against President Trump despite the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity ruling.
In April, Trump was convicted on all 34 felony counts after he was accused of paying porn star Stormy Daniels, AKA, Stephanie Clifford, ‘hush payments’ through his then-attorney Michael Cohen in a scheme to silence her and stop the story about their alleged affair from being published in the National Enquirer.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg alleged Trump committed fraud because the payment was labeled “legal fees.”
Late last month Judge Merchan delayed Trump’s November 26 sentencing in Alvin Bragg’s lawfare case indefinitely.
Trump’s lawyers a couple of weeks ago filed several motions to dismiss the case.
On Monday Merchan rejected Trump’s effort to overturn the felony conviction based on the presidential immunity argument after the Supreme Court ruled US presidents have immunity from prosecution from official acts.
Judge Merchan has not yet ruled on Trump’s request have the case tossed out entirely.
Trump ripped Merchan for releasing a “psychotic order” and disrespecting the US Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity.
“BREAKING: In a completely illegal, psychotic order, the deeply conflicted, corrupt, biased, and incompetent Acting Justice Juan Merchan has completely disrespected the United States Supreme Court, and its Historic Decision on Immunity. But even without Immunity, this illegitimate case is nothing but a Rigged Hoax. Merchan, who is a radical partisan, wrote an opinion that is knowingly unlawful, goes against our Constitution, and, if allowed to stand, would be the end of the Presidency as we know it. Merchan has so little respect for the Constitution that he is keeping in place an illegal gag order on me, your President and President-Elect, just so I cannot expose his and his family’s disqualifying and illegal conflicts….” Trump said on Truth Social on Tuesday morning.
“….I am the only Political Opponent in American History not allowed to defend myself – A despicable First Amendment Violation! Merchan took the Manhattan D.A.’s Witch Hunt, that, according to all Legal Scholars, including Jonathan Turley, Elie Honig, Andy McCarthy, Alan Dershowitz, Gregg Jarrett, David Rivkin, Elizabeth Price Foley, Katie and Andy Cherkasky, Paul Ingrassia, and many others, is a nonexistent case, barred by the Statute of Limitations, and should have never been brought and, through his fraud and misconduct, gave it a semblance of “life.” While Deranged Jack Smith was sent packing back to The Hague after losing all of his politically manufactured cases against me, Merchan, who is far worse and even more corrupt than Smith in his fight for my hopeless political opponents, just cannot let go of this charade. Is it because of his conflicts and relations that he keeps breaking the Law? This has to stop! It is time to end the Lawfare once and for all, so we can come together as one Nation and, Make America Great Again,” Trump said in a follow up post.
The US Supreme Court earlier this month declined to lift the gag order imposed on Trump in his NYC ‘hush money’ case.
This is the second time the Supreme Court declined to intervene and lift the gag order.
