Judge Won't Dump Trump's Hush Money Case

A judge in New York has rejected Donald Trump's attempt to dismiss his hush money conviction. This comes after a Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity. Prosecutors want the conviction to stand, but the future of the case is uncertain. Trump's lawyers are trying different arguments to get the case dropped. The case centers around a $130, 000 payment to porn actor Stormy Daniels to keep her quiet about an alleged sexual encounter with Trump. The judge said even if some evidence was related to official acts, it didn't matter much because there was plenty of other evidence.Trump's team is upset, saying the case should be dropped. The judge's decision noted that not everything a president does is official. Trump's sentence hasn't been set yet, and his lawyers are trying to delay it. Prosecutors have suggested freezing the case until Trump leaves office or agreeing not to jail Trump. Trump's lawyers don't like these ideas. Trump has been indicted four times, but only the hush money case went to trial.
