Judge Merchan's ruling confirmed that the Supreme Court's decision on presidential immunity does not apply to Donald Trump's conviction, as it involves unofficial conduct.
Trump's legal team argued for dismissal based on presidential immunity, but the judge found that the New York case was rooted in conduct before Trump was elected.
In his ruling, Merchan emphasized that even if there were any errors in admitting evidence, they were harmless given the overwhelming evidence pointing towards Trump's guilt.
Legal experts have warned that Trump's arguments in his criminal cases, based on presidential actions, may not hold strong, given the nature of many charges.
