Golden Data News on January 8th: On January 7th, local time, US District Judge Ellen Gesmer rejected the latest request from elected President Trump to postpone the sentencing procedure for his 'hush money' case. Trump's lawyer argued that as the elected president, Trump enjoys the same criminal immunity as the president, but this view was rejected by the court. With less than two weeks remaining before Trump takes office as president, if the sentencing is not completed before January 20th, the presidential immunity may postpone the case until his departure. The court's ruling means that Trump's sentencing is still scheduled for January 10th. However, Trump and his legal team stated that they will continue to seek legal avenues to postpone or cancel the sentencing.
