What if there is a hung jury in Trump's trial?

That’s kinda my feeling too. As usual, lots of fireworks, and Cohen is not the greatest witness, but (I think) they just need to show that Trump paid off Stormy Daniels and called it legal fees. He did so circuitously, but that just shows intent to hide and thus evidence of culpability.

I’m not ready to go there; we all thought OJ would be found guilty too, so you can never tell.

If he is found guilty, they’ll probably be deferential and let him campaign while his lawyers appeal ad infinitum. Or he’ll be out until sentencing, and then they’ll give him probation, which he will ignore.

But I’d still be happy to see him being held accountable as a felon.
