The judge presiding over Donald Trump's New York hush money trial on Friday postponed the sentencing that was scheduled for next week to allow for more time for arguments on whether the case should be dismissed. “Just as a sitting President is completely immune from any criminal process, so too is President Trump as President-elect,” Trump lawyers Todd Blanche and Emil Bove argued in a filing Wednesday. Trump last week said he plans to nominate Blanche and Bove for high-ranking posts at the Justice Department in his new administration. Prosecutors in Manhattan said they would challenge Trump’s efforts to dismiss the hush money case but acknowledged that his sentencing might need to take place after he leaves office. The case was the only one of four criminal cases brought against Trump after he left office in 2021 to go to trial.

In an election season in which both parties sought out any possible edge, Democrats clung to one seemingly clear-cut advantage: Celebrities including Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen broke hard for that party, even as voters did not. The result was a split-screen of American celebrity — two sets of famous people for two halves of the country. But by and large, the biggest names in entertainment said Vice President Kamala Harris should be elected to the nation’s highest office. Ms. Harris was decisively defeated on Tuesday, despite the backing of a megastar like Beyoncé. “America is tired,” wrote Albert Pennachio, an independent voter who lives in Statesville, N.C. “And we don’t care what celebrities think anymore.”

It isn’t just that the two likely MVPs are playing in this World Series, which begins Friday at Dodger Stadium. It isn’t just that two of the most formidable you-need-to-buy-their-jersey dollar/yen machines of modern times are playing in this World Series. But everything he has done has led him to this moment, to this week, to this World Series. It’s to play in a World Series as a Yankee and do whatever he can to leave people — his people — with a World Series memory for a lifetime. Will it be enough to fulfill Dave Roberts’ prediction that there will be more eyeballs on this World Series around the world than ever before?
