(TheConservativeTimes.org) – The U.S. Supreme Court has shocked the entire nation with its latest decision: it denied President-elect Donald Trump’s appeal against a vicious witch hunt.
Specifically, the highest court in the land shot down Trump’s request to postpone his sentencing in the politically motivated New York “hush-money” criminal case.
This ruling paved the way for the left’s continued persecution of America’s chosen leader just days before his inauguration.
The Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision saw Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett join the court’s liberal wing, delivering a blow to Trump’s legal team.
Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sided with Trump’s request for a sentencing delay, recognizing the blatant political motivations behind this case.
Trump’s petition to the Supreme Court stems from his conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels.
The payment, allegedly disguised as legal expenses, has been twisted by leftist prosecutors into a weapon against the president-elect.
Despite the setback, there is a silver lining for Trump supporters. Presiding Judge Juan Merchan has indicated he will opt for an “unconditional discharge” after a virtual hearing instead of imposing jail time.
When Trump’s legal team vowed to appeal the case, they cited presidential immunity and prosecutorial errors.
They argued that the immunity granted to sitting presidents for “official acts” should extend to presidents-elect, a position that the Supreme Court has ignored.
This decision sets a dangerous precedent, potentially allowing politically motivated prosecutions to interfere with the crucial transition period between administrations.
In their relentless pursuit of Trump, Manhattan prosecutors opposed the petition by citing a so-called “compelling public interest” in proceeding with sentencing.
This claim raised alarms when considering the timing of the case, strategically scheduled just days before Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States.
Trump expressed his anger toward Merchan, saying, “It’s a judge that shouldn’t have been on the case…they can have fun with their political opponent.”
“The pathetic, dying remnants of the Witch Hunts against me will not distract us,” he continued on his Truth Social platform.
Throughout this ordeal, Trump has maintained his innocence and criticized the case as politically motivated “lawfare.”
As the nation approaches Trump’s inauguration, it seems that the left will stop at nothing to obstruct his agenda.
