Former President Donald Trump has been sentenced to unconditional discharge by Judge Juan Merchan in the hush money case. This sentencing means that Trump will remain a felon but will not face jail time, penalties, or probation for his conviction.
During the sentencing, Judge Merchan noted the unique circumstances of the case, stating that the court had never seen such a remarkable set of circumstances before. The decision solidifies the fact that Trump will be the first convicted felon to become president.
