Those 12 jurors deserve a ton of credit. I think the case was a slam dunk, but the pressure must have been intense. Former president who resorts to mafia tactics all the time and loves to rile and fire up his wacko supporters ... couldn't be easy. They've served their country well.
Yup.

To me, the bigger picture is that it's possible to have a jury--in certain parts of the country--that can look look at a fairly cut-and-dry case and come to an appropriate verdict.

If there wasn't such a ####show of a judge down in FL, the even MORE obvious outcome than this one in the classified docs case would be a true slam dunk. That one is a joke and Trump has to be ####ting his pants.
