Prosecutors Push to Uphold Trump's Conviction Amid Legal Battles

TL;DR Summary
Prosecutors from the Manhattan district attorney's office have urged a New York judge not to dismiss Donald Trump's conviction in a hush money case, arguing that presidential immunity does not apply and suggesting alternatives to accommodate his presidential duties. They propose deferring sentencing until after his term or ensuring no jail time, while maintaining the conviction to uphold public confidence in the justice system. Trump's team argues for dismissal based on immunity, but prosecutors highlight the importance of preserving the jury's verdict.
