Prosecution closing arguments went on for hours and hours and hours. This must have irritated the heck out of the jury. Not a sign of confidence in their case. Jury instructions begin at 10 am ET. Thoughts?

A huge New York fine, like the $175 million in the other case?!

The Ukraine war cheerleaders hope for a Trump derailment.... Zeepers ain’t FReepers!

On a more serious note, SCOTUS will step in after this dog and pony show. If not, a Trump presidency with these newly created legal theories will bury the DNC.

Merchan just told the jury to not consider if he’s biased about the trial, lol.

Absolutely! Nothing happens unless God allows it to. He knows what He’s doing!

That is a real concern. No doubt their colleagues know their identity, even if they make an attempt to lay low.

Jailing Trump would seal the Democratsโ€™ fate. The backlash at such a Stalinesque maneuver would be for the ages.

Too bad the prosecution in the OJ case did not know that his attorney told him to stop taking his arthritis meds ( had arthritis in his hand) weeks before he put on the gloves.

... If Trump were to be completely exonerated there is a chance heโ€™d get a few weeks of good press out of it. ..

OMG, that would be Armageddon to them.

Agreed! SCOTUS will have no choice but to step in. As I mentioned on another thread, this is more than just election interference. This is election hijacking.

The jury shall disregard all evidence and statements presented by the defense and return a Guilty Verdict or face Indictments as Co-Conspirators...

I don't know about the 2nd part of your prediction, but I think the first part is spot-on. Probably another OJ Jury except this time it's the defense they'll ignore.

Surprise . Judge said Cohen guilt on FEC does NOT mean the defendant is guilty.

Merchan is trying to pull all the subjectiveness back so he seems unbiased, but his daughter is still fundraising off of it.

Oral jury instructions are trickling out. I assumed the jury would be given a physical copy, but maybe not?

Obligatory general high brow instructions first. What will be said when he gets into the specific weeds?

Judge tells jurors can accept or reject as much as they want of testimony.

Jury will NOT be given copy of instructions. Can request it to be read to them.
