Trump asks the Supreme Court to block sentencing in his hush money case in New York
President-elect Donald Trump is asking the Supreme Court to call off Friday’s sentencing in his hush money case in New York.
You're viewing a single thread.
Yesterday I thought Jack Smith's move was pretty pointless. And now I see the genius of it!
Trump's only move to avoid sentencing was to call his SCOTUS buddies. And now the SCOTUS has the following choice - that they probably don't want to have to make:
- Betray their racehorse and let him get sentenced.
- Do Trump's bidding and expose themselves once again as the corrupt MAGA outfit they are.
In other words, Jack Smith brilliantly cornered the SCOTUS. Beautiful!
What? Why would the SC care about looking corrupt? They're clearly not hiding it anymore.
It weakens their position as an impartial arbiter long-term. As in "The opinion of the justices who let Trump get away may not matter that much really..." Not today, but tomorrow.
Tomorrow is fascism, so it super doesn't matter.
We'll need to know whom to hang when it's over 🙂
