    What do you mean by the juror comparison? I didn’t follow the Hunter trial (because who the fuck cares lol) so I might be out of the loop

      The jurors for Hunter were out there giving interviews after the fact. The jurors for donnie are more or less in hiding as far as I can tell.

      And for good reason. It’s not “both sides”; the Republicans have been getting crazier and more violent every year and they adore donnie the wanna-be dictator. They were trying to dox the jurors, and the jurors would be right in trying to keep quiet and lay low and hope to keep their identity secret. Honestly, if he “wins” this fall, and I were them? I’d get the fuck out of this country. A great many of the donnie leg-humpers are crazy and murderous.

      Meanwhile, as you point out - who GAF about Hunter, honestly. His plea deal being spiked and this trial is likely entirely political, but if he faces consequences for misfiling some paperwork while addicted to crack, I doubt any Democrat or leftist is going to be making death threats to anyone, least of all the jurors that found him guilty.
