Donald Trump gets rare no-penalty sentence in hush-money case — What does this mean for US President-elect?

Live Mint  

US President-elect Donald Trump was sentenced to an ‘unconditional discharge’ on Friday ahead of his second term in office. Trump called his conviction a ‘political witch-hunt’ and a ‘disgrace to the system’ as he appeared via video. The jury found that he falsified records kept by his company to hide the purpose of reimbursements to his then-lawyer Michael Cohen, who had made a $130,000 payment to porn actor Stormy Daniels during Trump’s 2016 campaign to silence her claim of an extramarital sexual encounter. Lawyers for the Republican leader have made extensive attempts to stall the case at every turn following his May 2024 conviction.
