Even Trump’s own lawyer seems to think he will be convicted

Alina Habba went on Fox News and acknowledged that a “blue jury” could ultimately convict Trump.

Don’t miss Sarah Jones’ essay on Kristi Noem, titled Predatory The daily.

Habba said on Fox:

The problem I have is not whether Donald Trump and President Trump did anything wrong. He didn’t. The facts are on our side. The problem we have is when we have politicized judges and blue juries come in and they are supposed to be impartial, but you have a judge on the other side who is adjusting, reprimanding, rejecting counsel, who is tougher on one side than the other side . other.

That has consequences for the jury and that is not fair. It’s not right. If President Trump were given a fair jury, a fair trial would be a fair trial, as anyone else in this country would be because of his name. Is it Trump, he doesn’t, that’s where my concern lies. Not the facts, the facts are on our side.

There is no such thing as a red jury or a blue jury. That’s nonsense. The judge is not unfair in this case either. Judge Merchan has been very fair. His ruling on the gag order violations did not go as far as he could have and both sides had points and motions that the judge denied.

Habba’s comments are intended to lay the groundwork for the apology after Trump is convicted. Trump and his lawyers are going to blame a biased judge and jury, even though the majority of Americans have consistently expressed the belief that Trump has done something wrong or committed crimes.

Trump will continue with the usual complaining that everything is a huge conspiracy and everyone is out to get him.

Judging from the evidence presented, Trump will have a pretty tall order to avoid a conviction, so the MAGAs are already trying to spin the Republican candidate’s potential felony conviction.
