Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg will decide Tuesday whether to delay sentencing Donald Trump after his conviction on charges related to hush money paid to a porn star — or even to toss the case — now that Trump is preparing to re-enter the White House.

The prosecutor could move to pause Trump’s Nov. 26 sentencing date on his conviction for concealing a payoff that hid a sex scandal from voters before the 2016 presidential election.

Bragg could also push to dismiss the case entirely.

Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan would have to approve prosecutors’ plan before it goes into effect.

Either scenario would mean that Trump, 78, would retake the presidency largely unscathed by the four criminal cases that at one time threatened to derail his candidacy.

Merchan is also expected to rule Tuesday on whether to scrap May’s verdict based on July’s US Supreme Court ruling immunizing a president for “official acts” taken in office.
