So just rich people in fancy jobs should be afforded a better type of jury is really what you're saying.
If you were a union boss facing criminal charges, would you want a jury composed of business owners?
If you were a Jewish Rabbi facing charges, would you want an all-Muslim jury?

You are aware that both counsels get to reject and accept jury members, right?
Again, we're talking about New York here.

Manhattan, to be specific. So your jury pool is much more likely to have high achievers and highly educated members. Trump was lucky.
No, I wouldn't want an all-anything jury. There are reasons that attorneys get to omit potential jurors, but to say that to be impartial they must be from the same socioeconomic tier is nothing more than a way for you to invalidate any trial result that you don't agree with.
Trial attorney dismiss all jurors who appear to be intelligent. They want stupid, convincible people on the jury.
People can understand lying. There wasn't anything complex about what Trump did. His employees testified about how they lied and falsified records.
Are you saying people on a jury cannot understand when someone tells them how they lied to commit a crime?
Oh, here we go with Trump-hating "witnesses"....
You must get picked for a lot of juries.
Nope. As soon as they find out what my occupation is, I'm dismissed.
The people he employed for decades? Sure.
How long do you want people to punch down on you tonight?
You mean the people he allegedly oppressed for decades?
Not sure you know this or not, but "disgruntled employees" is a real thing.
Right, they want people who can empathize with others. That omits HR.
Allen Weisselberg went to jail for him. Others had foggy memories for him. Only when confronted with documents did they decide to be truthful.
Is Stormy one of those?
I think she became disgruntled upon seeing Trump's tiny "hands".

Don't confuse him with facts. I did that in the other thread and he just got scared and confused - like a horse whose blinders temporarily lifted.
I get it, I’m sad when people I like turn out to be felons too.
Why bother? Dude is a convicted felon with no punishment. If I was Trump I'd tell the judge over Truth Social to go eat himself. Then threaten his life. Nobody wants to do anything to keep this criminal in check.
Hey, I can't control the majority dipshits that have no brains. I am content that I was on the the right side. I'll write a book about it.
If you can’t vote, you shouldn’t be able to run. I think that is a constitutional amendment we can get through.
Yes. Yes I do.
Apparently, it was the most Christ like thing he could have done. That poor poor woman.
Don't hire a $hitty defense attorney and you probably won't have to worry about it.
Or don't commit a crime.
Did you know that the defense was part of the jury selection process?
Probably because you CAN vote as a convicted felon.
You and everyone that liked your post should pick up a book.
Where can convicted felons who haven't served their sentence vote?
Your silence will again be deafening.
So what? The US judicial system does. That probably trumps, pun intended, "some people". Accountability sucks Beaver.
If you were a rapist politician, would you want to be judged by a jury of your fellow Americans? No, by that logic you'd only want a jury of other rapist politicians. You can't make the stupidity in this line of thinking up... 🤔

I guess, the only defense of the guilty is hoping it'll get overturned. That's as funny as Nebraska fans "waiting till next year."
