Did the jury even sit down?

I hope they got lunch.

When he is in prison, investigators should petition that he is transferred to GITMO so he can be interrogated about collaborators in a proper manner.

Now the other shoe will drop.

Ineffective assistance of counsel.

No way to have a fair trial with TV coverage forgetting “alleged” and “allegedly” on video.

Glad this happened in Florida. If this trial took place in NY, the jury would not only have acquitted him, they would have demanded Trump pay him for the inconvenience of his incarceration.

If it was another state, it would’ve been not guilty on all counts.

So now will the lawyers who need extra spending money start petitioning for another trial because he wasn’t able to properly defend himself?

Ineffective assistance of counsel.

”My attorney was an idiot!”

”Who was your attorney?”

”I was, your honor.”

Will he also face state charges? If not, the next Democrat President can pardon him.

Read elsewhere that upon hearing the verdict, he stabbed himself in the neck with a pen. Bet that smarted. That’s the least of his worries. He’s going where he’ll be no more trouble.
