Gen. Flynn Says Trump Will Likely Be Sentenced To Prison In September

Gen. Michael Flynn made a recent appearance on the “Twins Pod” and predicted Trump would be sent to jail on September 18th.

Flynn stated, “I think it’s September 18th if I’m not mistaken, is the sentencing date. So that judge, I believe, is going to put Trump in jail.”

“Why wouldn’t he? It’s just more of the same,” added Flynn.

Trump’s attorneys are currently attempting to have Judge Juan Merchan push Trump’s sentencing date to after the general election in November.

Per ABC News:

Donald Trump is asking the judge in his New York hush money criminal case to delay his sentencing until after the November presidential election.

In a letter made public Thursday, lawyers for the former president and current Republican nominee suggested that sentencing Trump as scheduled on Sept. 18 — about seven weeks before Election Day — would amount to election interference.

Trump’s lawyers wrote that a delay would also allow Trump time to weigh next steps after the trial judge, Juan M. Merchan, is expected to rule Sept. 16 on the defense’s request to overturn the verdict and dismiss the case because of the U.S. Supreme Court’s July presidential immunity ruling.

“There is no basis for continuing to rush,” Trump lawyers Todd Blanche and Emil Bove wrote.

Blanche and Bove sent the letter to Merchan on Wednesday after the judge rejected the defense’s latest request that he step aside from the case.

Per Newsweek:

Donald Trump will be ordered to serve time in prison when he is sentenced for falsifying business records in September, a Fox News columnist has said.

Andrew McCarthy, senior fellow at the National Review Institute and former assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, said Trump will not actually be incarcerated even if he is handed a custodial sentence on September 18, as the former president will likely get bail pending appeal.

Instead, McCarthy said that Judge Juan Merchan, who oversaw the hush money trial and will hand down Trump’s sentence next month, will be helping Vice President Kamala Harris and the “media-Democratic complex” to label Trump a convicted felon sentenced to prison just weeks before Election Day in November.

Trump became the first U.S. president to be convicted of a crime after a New York jury found him guilty of 34 felony falsifying business records counts in May. He had denied all charges and said he was the victim of political persecution. He is likely to appeal.
