0:36
look we all know that the case is coming
0:38
to a close January 10th Trump will be
0:41
sentenced there will be no jail time
0:43
given there will be no fines or
0:44
penalties given to Trump the judge has
0:47
already indicated that judge Juan Maran
0:49
but I think he's doing this when he's
0:51
doing it so that the Democrats have a
0:53
talking point going into inauguration
0:56
day they can say this is the first
0:58
convicted felon to be inaugurated yada
1:00
yada yada yada and they're going to have
1:02
that convicted felon argument because
1:04
once the sentencing happens you are
1:05
actually then
1:07
officially a convicted felon but there's
1:10
still another problem because that
1:11
didn't stop him from calling him a
1:12
convicted felon before anyway there's
1:15
still another problem though by
1:17
finalizing it he also allows Trump to
1:20
appeal it and even MSNBC had to admit
1:23
that if it goes before an appell at
1:25
court and they find that there was you
1:27
know issues with this case and I think
1:29
there's a a lot of them and most legal
1:32
experts agree well then they have to get
1:34
rid of the whole conviction and then the
1:36
convicted felon argument is
1:38
over that being said I want you to keep
1:41
in mind that this is an MSNBC clip I'm
1:43
about to show you and so of course at
1:46
the end they're like but we don't see
1:47
any reason they would overturn it
1:49
because they have to say that for Their
1:51
audience they have to this whole case
1:53
was a joke was ridiculous it was
1:56
political posturing from day one this
1:59
was to me me more about Alvin brg's
2:02
political career and I think his future
2:04
as possible candidate for governor or
2:07
mayor of New York City probably mayor of
2:09
New York City first and then maybe
2:11
Governor later on I think Leticia James
2:13
did the same thing because I believe she
2:15
wants to be governor of the state of New
2:16
York I believe this is all political
2:19
calculations top to bottom I want you to
2:22
watch this video from
2:24
MSNBC ignore the last part of it because
2:26
you know they're just appealing to Their
2:28
audience but listen to to it and then
2:30
let me know what you think in the
2:31
comments all together even though a jury
2:34
found him guilty so Tim I'm curious what
2:37
an appeal process looks like and I just
2:39
want to be clear if judge Mara sentences
2:43
him uh this coming Friday January 10th
2:46
if he does that that day as a convicted
2:49
felon does that moniker stay with Donald
2:52
Trump during an appeals
2:54
process yeah yes it does Alex the the
2:57
sentencing is the sort of Final Chapter
3:00
Tri Court proceeding the conviction
3:02
stands even as he pursues an appeal
3:05
which it sounds like he will he'll
3:07
challenge the sufficiency of the
3:08
evidence to sustain the conviction he
3:10
may challenge some of the judges
3:12
evidentiary rulings there were issues
3:14
with jurors and a potential allegation
3:16
that they were biased against him and
3:19
not sufficiently screened in the process
3:21
so there will be claims he will raise to
3:24
the appell at courts in New York state
3:25
but in the meantime as he pursues that
3:28
appeal yes that conviction is final any
3:30
consequences would be imposed and he
3:32
will have the status of being a
3:34
convicted felon could it be wiped clean
3:36
if he won on
3:38
appeal yes I mean if the pellet Court
3:41
found that there was an error in the
3:43
trial Court's decisions about admission
3:45
of evidence or any uh any conduct which
3:48
would be sufficient to to undo the
3:51
conviction then yes that that would
3:53
undue uh the the jury's guilty finding
3:56
conviction I I think that's unlikely
3:58
here this was a carefully tried case I I
4:00
don't see anything just in following it
4:02
in the news that would give me great
4:04
pause if I were the district attorney
4:06
but again you don't know until you go
4:07
through the appell process okay um Peter
4:11
please stay with me I'm going to have
4:12
more to discuss with you in just a
4:13
