Even if he wins the November 5 election, Donald Trump must appear before Judge Juan Merchan for sentencing in the New York fraud trial on November 26 — and he faces two very different scenarios.

Trump was convicted of 34 counts of falsifying business records in the hush money case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg earlier this year.
