Donald Trump Hush money trial

[Mayhem]

Judges direct juries all the time, there was nothing unusual about the case here in that regards. And I speak as someone who has done jury duty twice.

What is important is that it may sway enough people not to vote for a CONvict in November enough to keep Tangoman out of office.

That's not the way this works. That's not even the way humor in general works.
It does here, and we do have different humour, mostly satirical, ironic (the correct definition not the Alanis Morrisette type), and black/dry/gallows, if only to remind everyone that Sleepy Don was a draft dodger. Then he has the audacity to go after people who have actually served. F*** him on that one. It’s funny because it is so ludicrous in its assertion. But as I said, that would get laughs here.

I suspect a handbasket may be involved.
And on that note, I’ll admit I did actually chuckle at this.

It would be impossible to get an impartial jury unless it's composed of backwater folks with limited access to media since forever. Everyone is strongly for or against the guy and it's difficult to be impartial and make a choice without being accused of being strongly for or against the guy.

They started with over a hundred potential jurors and whittled a lot of them down for varying reasons including that which you state, so the final 12 who started were likely to be as best a pool as could be hoped for.

To me, the only takeaway from all this is that Trump's famous quote "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters" from 8 years ago is now as true as ever.

True, and yet they forced this "trial" in a place where it is like 5% republican (they all left because the state is broken). So how do we possibly reconcile "a jury of his peers" in such a situation?

I deleted the last round of Trump bashing which derailed the thread too much.

I'm surprised the topic wasn't trimmed down to 5 pages lol. Isn't that what every Trump-related topic eventually turns into?

I guess he will have to borrow someone else's weapon...

Satire, dear lord, satire, given he dodged serving when he was young enough…

Hilary Clinton committed crimes against the country and has a myriad of mysterious deaths surrounding her family. Donald Trump had a "cover the wall in $#!( until something sticks" assault by Democrats and what they hit him on was a stretch "crime" based on an agreement he had with a porn star.

Your hypocrisy point is in disregard of the truth, which is pretty common in liberal logic.

Here. Know your audience, bro. I've said it before - groups homogenize with occasional tourists.

I think this would only apply, then, in the BS January 6th case. The classified documents case, which I think is the only one he really ever needed to worry about, wouldn't apply.

Cue Biden signing the “Shoot Trump Act” and gunning him down on Fifth Avenue :lol:

or calling Seal Team 6 in to take him out. Like Trump's Lawyer tried to pull in one of the court hearings

[Andrew NDB]

Classified documents case is dismissed. And that was the only one with any actual danger for Trump! Where he actually seemed guilty
