Another bubble that has been burst by these juries
I always had the fear that on any jury, there would be one or more Trump Cult member that would derail a verdict or settlement. I saw it happen in the fraud trial of former Arizona Governor Fife Symington (R).

He should think about that as he faces upcoming criminal trials. The myth of invincibility has shattered.
