This isnt political scrub. learn how the world works
a Jury is not political, no matter how much FOx news tells you
A jury is just made up of individual folks, and they each have a political party they mostly side with; therefore it’s impossible for a jury of individual people with individual political views to ignore their political views when deciding a conviction on a major political person let alone a President… it’s just not possible, especially these days where people are so extreme one way or the other.
It’s all so obviously political “scrub”.
Trump misclassified a book keeping record for these “hush money” payments as legal expenses which was considered falsifying business records which is a misdemeanor and has a statute of limitations of 2 years. The payments happened in 2017, and we’re talking $130K…
They found some ridiculous way to stretch out his misdemeanor and upgrade the falsifying business records misdemeanors to class e felonies by saying he committed the false records to commit or conceal a crime… what crime are they saying, a crime of illegal campaign contributions to benefit his campaign by not allowing negative stories to impact him. One could argue the payments weren’t connected to campaign at all and intended to protect his character as a large business owner, but I’m getting off topic now.
The statute of limitations on a felony is 5 years… again this happened in 2017, so that means these now “felonies” needed brought forward by 2022. They were brought forward in 2023.
How were they able to be brought forward in 2023? Well they found extremely rare loopholes such as a “tolling” executive order due to Covid 19 which briefly paused the statute of limitations. They also argued that they found “fraud” which allows you to extend the statute of limitations and as well by saying this was part of a “continuous scheme”.
Soooo in summary, they took a misdemeanor that’s past its 2 year statute of limitation and stretched it out and turned it into a felony that’s past its 5 year statute of limitations, and then tried a former president and likely next elected president, in one of the bluest counties in the country and turned each payment and classification into a separate felony, and found him unanimously guilty… get the fuck out of here with saying it’s not politically motivated.

Also, I know very simple division is hard for some people. 1/12th of 100% is 8.3, so it would either be 91.7 or 83.4, not "87 or 89" but you know, one would need to know how to do simple division for that to work
Just saw your edit…
The “87 or 89%” wasn’t in reference to the jury you imbecile… it’s the percentage of the manhattan district that voted democrat in most recent election… therefore pointing to picking 12 people in that district it’s extremely likely that a majority or all of them would end up being democrats.
