The Trump standard

Trump angrily declared the Stone jury tainted because the foreperson was a woman who criticized Trump on social media.

A fact that came out during voir-dire and that fazed Stone, his lawyers, and the court not at all.

Trump was not on trial.

But Stone through his lawyers has moved for a new trial for exactly the reason trumpeted by Trump.

And the right wing noise machine is equally outraged.

Clearly, only a jury of Trump supporters or political neuters could be untained in a trial of any Trump ally.

The Trump standard.
