Trump Sentenced in Stormy Case

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : Trump still pans to appeal the case.
52% : That's based on the so-called "presidential immunity doctrine," in which the Supreme Court said Trump enjoyed some degree of immunity from prosecution while carrying out his presidential duties.
36% : That's a win for people on the political left, as Democrats and their allies have made it a focus to smear Trump as a "convicted felon.
31% : After being sentenced Friday to unconditional discharge, Trump walks away with no jail time, no fine, and no probation -- but his conviction for falsified business records remains.
29% : "Trump was convicted over the summer on felony counts related to an alleged payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016.
29% : Manhattan prosecutors say the payment was made so Daniels would remain silent about a sexual encounter she claims to have engaged in with Trump in 2006.
26% : Trump has consistently denied he ever hooked up with Daniels.
20% : Trump railed against the prosecution overall and said it never should have been brought.
