Five women and seven men were selected to sit on the jury for Donald Trump’s first criminal trial, the election interference hush money case in Manhattan that involves the lovely salaciousness of a porn star, a Playboy model, scandal sheets and a small penis. As the Guardian notes, the jury will include two native West Coasters, one person who avoids social media, and surprising number of people who proclaim they “don’t follow the news.”
While there were a couple who seemed awed by Trump, the description of one’s response to a question is noted: “Asked if he had any strong opinions about Trump, he paused for a moment before answering yes.” The judge included him.
