The only appropriate response would be a Michael Meyers (movie Halloween) mask.

Your first clue on our verdict, asshole.

Actually , 12 of them wearing that mask would have been an even better response to his fake smile.

In a courtroom, the Jury is God or is doing God's work of 'judgement'.
A God that outsources evangelicalism can certainly outsource judgement to juries.
The so-called god-loving never-right needs more humility and less hypocrisy.

I never smiled at the defendant. We weren't there to make friends.

And who would smile at a guy who is sleeping and farting all the time?

What a dumb statement. His brain is messed up.

He doesn't respect anyone who isn't a dictator. Corporate media is going to try and prop this pos up as a viable candidate so they can increase ratings. "Everything t***p touches dies" applies to them, also.

that any (good) defense lawyer would've counciled their client to observe.

TSF gave no respect, why should the jurors show him any?

20. Donny Von Shitsinpants learned his craft of "working the jury" from his mentor Roy Cohn*.
Wed Jun 5, 2024, 09:22 AM
Jun 2024

Roy Cohn got some of his mafia clients such as John Gotti off by working the jury
in order to get a hung jury or a mistrial.

* Roy Cohn also taught Donny to not pay his contractors or his bills and then file
bankruptcy in order to not pay for labor or materials. Roy made a name for himself
by going after gay men in the military and or government while he himself was a
homosexual who died of AIDS.

Both Trump and his lawyer/mentor Cohn destroyed 100s of people and their families
with their actions.

***************

Btw when is Trump going to jail for jury and or witnesses tampering?

Okay, I've never been on a jury. The closest that I came was being in the courtroom with the defendant. They instructed us not to acknowledge the defendant in any way.

Besides, you stupid moron, respect has to be earned. You disrespected them by sleeping during the trial, and attacking them and Judge Merchan outside the courtroom. Of course they didn't smile at you.

There will probably be a "bags of cash" story involved before he is done.

Just like his election lies, the stories will get juicier and juicer, but none of them will be backed by evidence.
