This would not happen today.
The sentencing would happen on another date and he is the right of appeal.
And jail might not even be part of the sentence for these crimes.
What crimes?
You do know that Trump has been on trial in NY for weeks now right? And Closing arguments are happening?
This scenario involves Trump going jail after being convicted.
What crimes? You didn't answer the question. They haven't specified a crime, have they?
They just showed this chart in court

I actually thought you were kidding
The idea that Trump wasn't told what the crime was is a talking point going around, but it's not true.
Trump is being charged with 34 counts of filing false business records.
Trump's lawyers have known this since APRIL 4, 2023 when the indictment was filed.

The talking point is this crime is misdemeanor unless it is used to cover up another crime
These were mentioned in another court filing, not in the indictment.
The Daa asked for 4 of them. The judge tossed out one of them. One of them is FECA , the Federal Election Campaign Act.
One is a NY state election law
I forget the other right now, I think it's tax law, but Trump's lawyer was addressing these today in court.
Here's an example
