    Because I believe the strict legal definition of a convicted felon requires sentencing.

    You are not convicted until the judge enters that judgment of guilt. Now, in New York, it’s very likely that Judge Merchan will enter that judgment of guilt against Trump on the same day that he issues sentencing. That’d be July 11th.

    This is from a Yale Law professor.
