“I thought STRIKES were supposed to be ‘unlimited’ when we were picking our jury?” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
State law, a law that's been around for over a hundred years, limits it to 10 strikes.
That's what he gets for thinking again.
Trump always complains when he has to follow the rules. Doesn't matter what the rule is, he always wants to be the exception.
It probably comes from the decades of experience he has in not having to follow the rules.
And he's always been a lying manipulative piece of shit too.
Exemplifying that here - he actually does get unlimited strikes if there's a legal reason that juror shouldn't be there (e.g. if they say, "I'm not going to consider the evidence, I've already made up my mind.") He's only limited to 10 strikes without having a legal basis for them, but his followers are going to see Trump's whining and walk away with the impression that his lawyers are forced to spend those 10 strikes on "I've already made up my mind" jurors.
You couldn't pay me enough to be a juror for that trial. Sure, just paint a target on my back for this cult leader who's backed by half the government!
Oh, this isn't The Onion, this is real news.
TBF I bet the prosecution feels the same way...the juror strike system is designed to make compromises.
"Man, if I didn't have to follow all these rules, I would be winning right now!"
But he can only make deals, not compromises.
Is it reasonable to think that if his lawyers get even one maga nut on the jury, they'd have to re-try the case?
On the plus side this is New York, the city that knows him best. And they fucking hate him.
Florida can keep him
The parts of my family that are Trump supporters are all from NYC. I imagine they never have actually met Trump though. I imagine actually meeting him would cure them.
It's up to the government to decide whether or not they re-try a case if there is a hung jury. It's my understanding that most of the time, they do not re-try the case because of the time and effort involved with no guarantee that the outcome would be any different. So usually a hung jury is a victory for the defense.
I'm not a lawyer, that's just my layman's understanding from the legal stuff I've seen and read.
I expect in this case the prosecution would consider it worth the time and expense, but
Hah, get fucked you feckless moron.
"No one can judge me!" - Donald Trump literally
I just like that, for the past couple of days, he’s had to sit there and listen to people offer their unfiltered opinions about him as they were entered into the public record. Honestly, I was kinda hoping it’d go on for another day or two so he’d have a rage stroke.
You know how many times he's asked his lawyers if they could? At least a dozen.
Cant expect any different from the rotten orange pussy
Of course that's what he wants to do. Reject all of them and then have the judge declare a mistrial when they can't seat a full jury.
In bird culture we would call this "being a whiny little bitch"
Donnie's complaints
Wah wah wah. Fucking crybaby. How about not breaking the fucking law asshole?
Sounds like he's a bit of a ... Snowflake lmao
One downvote lol. Someone is a butthurt snowflake.
Haha. He's still complaining about Kimmel?
That moron doesn't even realize his complaints cause more people to tune into Kimmel to see Kimmel make fun of him every night.
And I hope Kimmel brings this up tonight.
As per his own words, he's a whiner cause he'll do it till it wins. Unsure how well that works in criminal court though. I'm hoping we get to find out the court's limits sooner than later
He whines the likes the world has never seen. So much whining. I can't stand it all this whining.
There's a bit of usefulness in whining. I "whine" at work all the time, but it's about useful shit. Nothing seems to happen until I complain about something lol
If you can't do the mild inconvenience, don't do the crime.
Complained the looseys cost too much.
He’s just so tired now, why do they keep making him run for president?
It's his retirement plan
