Well its going to be a guilty verdict so the democrat media can all go on sir and call Trump a convicted felon. That’s the whole point of this from their angle. Of course an appeals court will overturn the whole thing.

Might be why there is so much news about conservative justices in SC right now.

If they can't agree on a predicate crime, then the defendant must be given the presumption of innocence of the supposed crimes.

And even if they do agree, without a conviction in a court of law, the defendant has the presumption of innocence.

The true beauty of America's Due Process system of Justice is the jury. The jury has a power that no other entity has. The jury has the power to judge the evidence and the law. The Judge can only judge the evidence.

Didn’t Merchan deny the defense the right to call witnesses, after he was angered by the first one? There are so many reason this trial could be nullified for.

“Of course an appeals court will overturn the whole thing”.

And they will still call him a convicted felon.

We the Jury find the defendant guilty of a crime we cannot agree on, 31 times.

Read the two statutes for falsifying records. The one for the second degree and one for the first degree.
