Hey there, amigos! In a twist that's got everyone talking, the U.S. Supreme Court has declined to postpone President-elect Donald Trump's sentencing in his hush money case. 😱 This means Trump will be facing the music in a New York courtroom this Friday!
Trump's legal squad argued that he should be immune from prosecution during the presidential transition period, but the Supreme Court wasn't having it. They shot down his request, even with a 6-3 conservative majority. Talk about drama!
According to The New York Times, this sentencing will cement Trump's status as the first felon to occupy the Oval Office. Whoa!
After the decision, Trump said from his Mar-a-Lago residence, \"I read it, and I thought it was a fair decision, actually.\" Later, he took to social media to declare, \"For the sake and sanctity of the Presidency, I will be appealing this case and am confident that JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL.\"
What does this mean for the future president? Only time will tell, but it's definitely something to keep an eye on! 👀
