Trump Calls To Disbar Judge After Setting Sentencing Date
President-elect Trump is furious…
On Saturday, Trump called the New York judge who ordered sentencing to begin next week in his hush-money case to be disbarred.
“I never falsified business records. It is a fake, made up charge by a corrupt judge who is just doing the work of the Biden/Harris Injustice Department, an attack on their political opponent, ME!,” he wrote on Truth Social on Saturday morning, echoing his initial response.
“He created a case where there was none. Keeps a ‘gag order’ on me so that I can’t talk about how crooked he is,” Trump continued. “The Fake News knows all about it, but they refuse to talk. He may be the most conflicted judge in New York State history.”
His comments come a day after Judge Juan Merchan announced that sentencing for the president-elect’s 34-count felony conviction would begin before his inauguration on Jan. 10 — handing Trump a blow after he demanded his case be dismissed following his election win.
Despite the decision to move forward with the case, Merchan signaled he is inclined to propose no punishment in the case connected to a payment made to an adult film star to cover up an alleged affair during the 2016 election.
“The judge should be disbarred! This is why people, and companies, are FLEEING New York,” he wrote Saturday. “A corrupt court system.”
“There has never been a President who was so evilly and illegally treated as I. Corrupt Democrat judges and prosecutors have gone against a political opponent of a President, ME, at levels of injustice never seen before,” Trump wrote in a second post.
“Corrupt judges, or judges so blinded by their hatred of me and my political ideology to ‘MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN,’ are making a mockery of the United States Judicial System, and the World is watching in disgust,” he added.
