There's a big question mark over Donald Trump's future, and it's not just about the upcoming election. He's due for sentencing on November 26 in a New York fraud case, and legal experts are divided on how this might play out. Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records related to a hush money scheme involving Stormy Daniels. The prosecution claims this was to hide a sexual relationship and sway the 2016 election.

The recent Supreme Court ruling gives Trump immunity for official acts while in office, but this doesn't cover personal crimes. If Trump wins the election, his sentencing could be delayed by appeals. Legal analysts Allison Gill and former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe suggest that the judge, Juan Merchan, might suspend Trump's sentence until he leaves office, assuming he wins.

"Merchan's decision won't change based on the election results, " Gill said. "It's Merchan's call. " McCabe agrees, doubting Merchan will accept the "immunity" argument. However, they both think Trump could avoid immediate detention if elected. It's a complex legal situation that's sure to keep everyone guessing.
