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