President Donald Trump has been sentenced to an unconditional discharge in his New York hush money case. Judge Juan Merchan handed down the sentence on Friday, meaning he will face no jail time, fines, or probation, but will have a conviction on his record. The case involved 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to hush money payments made during his 2016 presidential campaign. Trump appeared in court virtually from Mar-a-Lago for the sentencing.
