whatever political purposes he may be doing that, he s clearly asking for it and i think that it s incumbent on the judge to treat him like any other party. as i ve said repeatedly, it s the road to hell to not treat him like everyone else and it s hard to see the defense that will be made. i will not be surprised at all if the district attorney revises their pending motion to encompass this. and i think the judge will certainly want to give an opportunity for the defense to be heard, that it s required by due process. but it s very hard to see why they will not be sanctioned for this conduct. the judge already has a motion pending from the district attorney about comments that donald trump made about witnesses, michael cohen, witnesses who have been talked about publicly a lot by a lot of people. the judge didn t exactly race
when we are picking our jury. i was then told we only had 10, not nearly enough. donald trump s lawyers have known or should have known, from the day donald trump got indicted a year ago that for the crimes he starts with, every defendant in the state of new york and every prosecutor gets 10 preemptory challenges. 10. if donald trump went out on fifth avenue and shot someone and murdered that person, then he would get 20 preemptory challenges for a class a felony, 20. there is no place in america where any defendant gets an unlimited number of peremptory challenges. that doesn t exist but donald trump believes that his voters are to relentlessly a minute to know that. the trump voters who do know that, are all of the trump voters who have been criminally charged for their attack on the
