Tenney said that she had seen judges removed for far less than the "judicial misconduct" going on in the Trump trial. >
Congresswoman Claudia Tenney, R-N.Y., said Wednesday that there seems to be reversible error in the hush money trial of former President Donald Trump.
"This seems to me like reversible error on its face, not to mention all the other terrible things that we're hearing about it," Tenney said on the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show, in reference to Judge Juan Merchan's jury instructions.
Merchan told the jury in the Trump trial that they do not need complete unanimity to convict the former president. He highlighted specifically that if the jurors did not agree on what the crime was, but did agree a crime was committed, he would treat it as a unanimous verdict.
Trump is accused of falsifying business records to cover up a hush money payment involving porn star Stormy Daniels.
The trial for the hush money case formally began last month, which made Trump the first former president to stand trial for an alleged crime.
"My father I think was about the longest serving New York State Supreme Court justice in New York history," Tenney said. "He would be appalled if he were alive today to see this."
She added that she had seen judges removed for far less than the "judicial misconduct" going on in the Trump trial.
Closing arguments for the trial began this week and a verdict is expected in the coming days.

The Trump trial is chock full of on-purpose reversible errors. The chance that any conviction would be upheld on appeal is zero, but the idea is to get a conviction for political reasons, and not care about the inevitable reversal.
There’s been dozens of “reversible errors” from the bench in the trial - the point isn’t to get a conviction that withstands appeal, it’s to get a conviction for anything in order to hand a fig leaf to swampy DC Republicrats to turn against Trump.
This election isn’t Democrat vs Republican or left versus right, it’s DC vs America.
The goal is to put President Trump in prison and label him as a convicted felon, and to hell with the Constitution and the rule of law.
A shame what’s happened to our country. An atrocity.
So say you ALL???
The Judge, the prosecutor, this entire case... It’s all a farcical scam to produce a ‘Guilty’ verdict.
This phony conviction will be overturned... But the verdict will be ‘Guilty’ and until it is overturned the leftwing media, the Democrat party and Trump’s opponents will refer to him as a convicted felon.
Raise your hand if you think the NY Supremes will boot Merchan.
Besides, Merchan knows a PJT conviction will eventually be reversed.
Even if he is removed from the bench, he’ll be a Leftist hero and can expect big $$$ rewards.
Besides, the obvious political purpose is to label PDJT a convicted criminal through November.
Rats never lose sight of their goals. By any means necessary.
