Infuriated Trump goes off at judge ‘evilly’ targeting him – Washington Examiner
Donald Trump is scheduled to be sentenced on January 10, 2025, for his criminal conviction related to hush money payments made to a porn star. Judge Juan M. Merchan, who presided over the trial, indicated that the sentence might include a conditional discharge, meaning the case could be dismissed if certain conditions are met. This decision suggests that Trump may avoid jail time (Source [2][3]).
In response to the scheduling of his sentencing, Trump expressed his outrage against Judge Merchan, claiming he has been subjected to unfair treatment.He took to his social media platform, Truth Social, to criticize the judge, stating that no president has been treated as poorly as he has been. He characterized the legal actions against him as politically motivated, specifically targeting what he perceives as corrupt practices by Democrats (Source [1][2]).
Trump tears into judge for upholding conviction in hush money case
An infuriated President-elect Donald Trump tore into the New York judge that scheduled his sentencing in the hush money payment case.
Trump erupted on his social media platform, Truth Social, on Saturday and blasted Justice Juan Merchan for targeting him “evilly and illegally.”
“There has never been a President who was so evilly and illegally treated as I,” Trump wrote in two lengthy posts Saturday morning. “Corrupt Democrat judges and prosecutors have gone against a political opponent of a President, ME, at levels of injustice never seen before.”
WHICH JAN. 6 DEFENDERS COULD SEE PARDONS
Merchan on Friday upheld Trump’s felony conviction that he had falsified business records but supported an unconditional discharge of Trump’s sentence, a rare move given that Trump will move into the White House in less than three weeks.

But it means that Trump is slated to appear at sentencing on Jan. 10, either in person or virtually.
The unconditional charge would make Trump’s felony status official, something that he has decried from the beginning on the basis that he was the victim of a political witch-hunt and “law fare.”
“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 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 retorted Saturday morning.
“The Fake News knows all about it, but they refuse to talk. He may be the most conflicted judge in New York State history. The accountant testified, with total corroboration, that the records were perfect & totally above board,” Trump continued. “A legal expense was called, on the books, a legal expense. There was nothing else it could have been called. This was the so-called falsifying of records. I was hiding nothing, everything was out in the open for all to see. Every legal scholar of note said there IS NO CASE AGAINST ME. The judge should be disbarred!”
Trump was facing four simultaneous criminal cases for various offenses, but saw them shrivel up following his victory in November.
Trump was convicted by a jury last year on 34 counts of falsifying business records, the only case of which that has stuck against the incoming commander in chief.
