He wouldn’t be able to appeal directly to SCOTUS anyway. I mean, unless SCOTUS were willing to ignore all procedural rules and norms or something.

At this point, I'm just hoping Merchan will remand him and not stay execution of the sentence pending appeal, because we might as well get some prison time before SCOTUS hops in

The chances SCOTUS doing such a thing has got to be close to zero.

Obviously, we are in uncharted territory, but what do you think are the chances of SCOTUS just announcing that the conviction is overturned? How much more brazen/ridiculous would that be than what they’ve already done?

It would literally have to go to NY appeals court and eventually NY Supreme Court. And people simply do not seem to understand this. Not to mention this is literally a state case, Not that SCOTUS fucking wouldn't love to get involved, but that's kind of an open question at this point.

And what are the odds of that happening? (For those in the audience who need to be told this, and I know you exist, that was what we of Earth call "sarcasm".)

He has to go through the 2nd Circuit Appeal Court, and then to SCOTUS. Supervising Justice for 2nd Circuit is Sonia Sotomayor. Which means Trump won't be able to line jump That's why September 18th won't give him the time to appeal to SCOTUS

So, ummm... how exactly did SCOTUS wind up hearing arguments a month after the election in Bush v. Gore?
