(GoRealNewsNow.com) – In a shocking turn of events, the U.S. Supreme Court has denied President-elect Donald Trump’s request to delay his criminal sentencing in New York.
Made by a slim 5-4 majority, this decision paves the way for the sentencing to proceed as planned today.
Critics have argued that the ruling allows the liberal establishment to continue its relentless pursuit to undermine Trump’s presidency before it even begins.
The Supreme Court’s decision saw Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett join the three liberal justices in denying Trump’s request.
Meanwhile, Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh stood firm in supporting Trump’s plea for a sentencing delay.
Still, Trump remains defiant in the face of adversity. He slammed the case as politically motivated “lawfare” orchestrated by his opponents to obstruct his incoming administration.
The charges stem from alleged hush money payments, which many argue are nothing more than an attempt to smear Trump’s character and prevent him from governing effectively.
The Supreme Court’s unsigned order stated that “the burden that sentencing will impose on the President-Elect’s responsibilities is relatively insubstantial.”
After hearing about the Supreme Court’s decision, which Trump labeled as a “fair decision, actually,” the president-elect also had choice words for the case’s presiding judge.
“It’s a judge that shouldn’t have been on the case…they can have fun with their political opponent,” Trump said.
“The pathetic, dying remnants of the Witch Hunts against me will not distract us,” he added on his Truth Social platform.
Trump’s legal team has argued for presidential immunity, asserting that the protections afforded to sitting presidents should extend to presidents-elect.
This extension of existing legal precedent would safeguard the smooth transition of power and prevent politically motivated prosecutions from interfering with the crucial work of an incoming administration.
Despite the setback, Trump remains undeterred. He plans to keep fighting not just for himself but for the integrity of the presidency and the will of the American people.
The president-elect’s resolve in the face of this blatant political persecution is a testament to his commitment to draining the swamp and restoring justice to America’s corrupted system.
As Trump prepares to take office as the 47th President of the United States, this latest attack by the liberal establishment serves as a reminder of the challenges that lie ahead.
