He'll do zero time.
They also said he wouldn't be convicted, yet here we are.
This POS has expressed 0 remorse and actively threatened the judge and court staff to the point of needing a gag order. If I were that judge I'd seek the max sentence.
Sure, but you ain't the judge.
He appointed Cannon, who was practically bending over backwards to get him off, but the entire defense was basically "yeah he did it, so what?," making it significantly more difficult for her - but what's stopping him from being sentenced to a firm handshake and a pat on the back?
Cannon isn't the judge on this case, it's Juan Merchan. I can see her going light on Trump, if that case ever makes it to trial. But it's been pretty clear that Merchan is not a fan of Trump and his lawyers playing games
Cohen was sentenced to three years for his involvement in this scheme, it’ll be hard to justify giving Trump probation.
If only deductive logic was applicable in the US justice system.
