JONATHAN TURLEY: Trump's trial shows NY couldn't handle the truth. Sentence rams that home
Fox News
The ultimate penalty for Trump from Judge Merchan reflects the lack of seriousness in the NY case. It was more inflated than the Goodyear blimp, pumped up by hot rage and rhetoric.
Jonathan Turley is a Fox News Media contributor and the Shapiro Professor of Public Interest Law at George Washington University. He is the author of "The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage" (Simon & Schuster, June 18, 2024).
The case has long been denounced by objective legal observers, including intense Trump critics, as a legal absurdity. Even CNN’s senior legal analyst Elie Honig denounced the case as legally flawed and unprecedented while Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., simply called it total "b—s–t."
