'Just a sham': Trump loses last-ditch attempt to stop hush money sentencing

Sky News host Danica De Giorgio has weighed in on the recent development in Donald Trump's hush money case, where a judge denied the US President-elect’s request to delay his sentencing.

The US President-elect will be sentenced in his hush-money case just days out from when he is due to be inaugurated.

"This really is a sham now," Ms De Giorgio said.

No difference between hush money and settlement money, Bill Clinton

[ComerGeorge]

That's your Democrat judge for you, when Trump takes office he should go after them and put them in jail

[razorm]

The judge needs to be investigated by every government source

[mikeghost]

Kash Patel is gonna have a little something for this judge.

[peecee]

So it's illegal to pay hush money but not illegal to accept it? Oh yes, and non-disclosure agreements - perfectly fine.

The Judge's daughter is a Democrat party fundraiser who keeps a percentage of the money she raises. The Judge should have recused himself as you can't be impartial when your daughter is making millions.

But why did this judge do it now? He had months before to rule and chose to do before the swearing Trump in

[ivansultanoff]

Of course no mention of Clinton's $800 k hush money -but of course Dems are allowed😂

Where the problem is he may be the first convicted felon however this will be overturned in the supreme court. Juan Merchan then will be indicted for numerous violations of the law.

But hunter and the rest are now untouched

[Entropy]

There is nothing illegal about paying someone to remain silent. Perfectly legal.

[Trutheater]

This is simply lawfare without any merit.

[ssuwandi]

I hope he will sue when the case is eventually overturned.

Come on, he didn’t really believe that a New York court would side in his favor (no matter what the truth is) did he?

[EL-FUKKO]

All out of court settlements are now fair game.

[francykoblitz]

Thank god we have Donal Trump as precident 🎉❤

[Rick]

Sooner or later, here or hereafter, we all get exactly what we deserve.

[Thundarr]

The NY Stock exchange, move it to Florida, put the fence around NY.

[davidsmith]

It's now before the Supreme Court

[PaulGrima-zp]

These judges are corrupt as he'll.!!
