Contributing sentiments towards policy:

36% : Malcolm says this is a way for Merchan to take a "dig" at Trump, whose social media posts against the court have drawn Merchan's ire.
25% : Justice Juan Merchan wrote in his decision that the sentence would be an unconditional discharge -- which means that the felony conviction would stand, but that Trump would be unlikely to face jail time, probation, or fines.
