Former President Donald Trump received a significant delay in his sentencing for hush money convictions, with the judge agreeing to reconsider the impact of a recent Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity.
Originally set for July 11, the sentencing is now scheduled for at least September 18, pending further court decisions that could potentially invalidate his conviction. Trump, who denies any wrongdoing, celebrated the delay on his Truth Social platform, claiming exoneration due to the Supreme Court’s decision.
The postponement comes amidst a series of legal victories for Trump, including the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity, which shields him from prosecution for certain actions related to his presidency.
