Really? His biggest booster is in DC. Should be a snap to get acquitted.

The info I had in the comment is apparently incorrect. So I edited it out.

“Nowhere in the country is the bias against Mr. Manafort more apparent than here in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.”

And nowhere in the country are there more lobbyists committing the same crimes than in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

Still, I doubt the prosecution wants to move the trial anywhere!

Hey Paulie. I read on the Google that Roberts County Texas voted for Donnie DirtBag at 95.3%…Maybe getting your trial moved there will get you out of jail by your 187th birthday…at least till the Treason charges drop…

Not sure if the jury pool is just the district, but if it is, Washington, DC, went Clinton by a Whole Lot more than 8… Add a zero to that 8 and you’d be a whole lot closer.

But, yeah, he’s shopping for at least one Trumper who will hang the jury.

Depends who’s part of the jury pool there. If it’s all staff he’d be convicted on charges he’s not even being tried for.
