Attorneys Ralph Nader and Bruce Fein wrote a letter to Judge Juan Merchan, calling for him to sentence former President Trump to prison.
Ralph Nader, the Green Party's presidential nominee in 2000, urged Judge Juan Merchan to sentence former President Trump to prison, calling the judge the 'last best hope' to preserve the republic.

Nader and the Trump campaign did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment on the matter.
