GREGG JARRETT: Trump’s sentencing is delayed. Will reality ever take a bite out of Bragg’s outrageous case?

On Friday, in the aftermath of Trump’s presidential victory, Merchan postponed indefinitely next week’s scheduled sentencing and agreed to consider a defense motion to dismiss the case.

Judge Merchan's courtroom was a cesspool of incomprehensible rulings that deprived Trump of a fair trial.  Both judge and prosecutors worked in concert to engineer the guilty verdicts.   Gregg Jarrett is a Fox News legal analyst and commentator, and formerly worked as a defense attorney and adjunct law professor. His recent book, "The Trial of the Century," about the famous "Scopes Monkey Trial" is available in bookstores nationwide or can be ordered online at the Simon & Schuster website.  Jarrett’s latest book, "The Constitution of the United States and Other Patriotic Documents," was published by Broadside Books, a division of HarperCollins on November 14, 2023.  Gregg is the author of the No. 1 New York Times best-selling book "The Russia Hoax: The Illicit Scheme to Clear Hillary Clinton and Frame Donald Trump." His follow-up book was also a New York Times bestseller, "Witch Hunt: The Story of the Greatest Mass Delusion in American Political History." 

But on Friday, in the aftermath of Trump’s presidential victory, Merchan postponed indefinitely next week’s scheduled sentencing and reluctantly agreed to formally consider a defense motion to dismiss the case entirely.  A sensible and fair judge would grant it.  That may exclude Merchan.
