Juan Merchan, the viciously biased presiding judge in the bogus “hush money” case against Donald Trump, has just dealt a wholly unexpected and yet staggering blow to the leftists who were positively slavering at the prospect of seeing Trump clapped behind bars on Sept. 18. The destroyers of the republic will now have to content themselves with hollering “convicted felon!” at every conceivable opportunity, for Merchan has now set the sentencing for Nov. 26, a full three weeks after what used to be Election Day and is now the formal end of Election Season.
