Juries are unpredictable in many ordinary cases, so this one it's not even possible to guess. But I think the Trump haters are getting something they want with this salacious testimony; but Trump is also getting something as well. Daniels spoke about lawyers handling the case for her, which confirms that the NDA was considered by all parties to be legal expenses. And that destroys the idea that the records were falsified.

Perhaps the Trump hating jurors will be satisfied that his reputation has been smeared even more, but can't find the needed elements of a crime. Then again, we won't know until they come back with a verdict.

I've been wondering all along...

The LAAP-dog media made a lot of noise about two lawyers being on the jury and how they may become "super jurors" because of their knowledge of the law. The thought was that the other jurors would defer to the lawyers in a sort of "The Runaway Jury" situation.

That said, if it is clear that there is no case here, that the law was misapplied, that Bragg failed to meet the threshold of proving his case, that there is no underlying crime that that bootstrapped the expired misdemeanors, that the legal expenses were properly booked as legals expenses, and that President Trump was not personally involved in the low-level day-to-day staff operations of their departments, and if these lawyers vote to convict President Trump anyway, can those two lawyers be brought up on ethics violations to the NY bar association? Aren't they still officers of the court? Don't they still have a duty to the law even though they are sitting on a jury?
