Learn what a cult is you piece of sh*t.
I only post the truth. you post anything but the truth.
I am not sure this helps you because you don't know how to read.
No wonder you are as much of a disgusting piece of sh*t trump is. But we knew that already. You have zero morals or manners
In the criminal case against Donald Trump in New York, the verdict on 34 felony counts (related to falsifying business records) was delivered by a jury that qualifies as a “jury of his peers” in the legal sense. That doesn’t mean people identical to him socially or politically—it means a group of ordinary citizens selected through the court’s jury selection process to be fair and impartial.
And yes, the defense absolutely had a role in picking the jury. In the U.S. system, both sides—the prosecution and the defense—participate in a process called voir dire. During this, potential jurors are questioned about their backgrounds and possible biases. Each side can:
Ask the judge to dismiss certain jurors “for cause” (if there’s a clear reason they can’t be impartial), and
Use a limited number of “peremptory challenges” to remove jurors without stating a reason (with some legal limits).
Trump’s legal team was actively involved in that process, just like the prosecution, helping shape the final jury that heard the case.
