Yeah, I’m thinking that Trump gets out scott-free. I think you might see not-guilty. There are a lot of liberals on the jury, but I’d say half of the ones with a few brain cells are going to convince the other ones with no brain cells that there’s nothing there.

How many Jurors lied to get on the stand to make history. That is my concern.

Not a lawyer here.
Trump has 34 counts against him to be decided upon by the jury.
If even ONE count is a hung jury, does that create a mistrial for the whole case and require starting over? What about if they convict him as guilty on some and hung jury on others?
Does he get sentenced on the guilty counts and possible retrial on only the hung jury counts or does a hung jury result on even ONE of 34 counts toss the whole thing back for possible retrial?
