Legal experts suggest various factors, including political repercussions and recent judicial precedents, could delay or even derail any formal sentence.
With Trump’s re-election as president, any attempt at sentencing could ignite a substantial political uproar. New York City criminal defense lawyer and former prosecutor Mark Bederow notes that any sentence against Trump, given his return to high office, might deepen national divisions.
«A judge can't ignore the 800-pound gorilla in the room,» Bederow said, highlighting the complexity of sentencing a president-elect without risking further national discord, as quoted in a report by USA Today.
Trump's convictions relate to falsifying business records to conceal payments made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, stemming from an alleged 2016 affair.
