Episode Transcript
The truth about the hush money jury and the Trump guilty
verdict.
After the verdict, right out ofthe courtroom, Donald J.
Trump spoke to the press.
He spoke with a defeated visage,his eyes cast down.
As he was mounting the courageto continue to deny his guilt
and condemn the Americans thatsat on the jury, pointing his
(00:23):
fingers at everyone but himself.
Elly (00:26):
What a loser.
Ben (00:28):
He suggested that they rigged it, that they were
unfair, that they werepolitical.
By they, Trump means himself andwhomever.
Elly (00:38):
The people, the people.
Ben (00:42):
I continue, he suggested that he was represented by only
three to six percent.
Elly (00:49):
Yeah,
Ben (00:49):
Implying that the jurors were biased because they were
not Republican.
Elly (00:55):
but it just ain't so
Ben (01:00):
The SDNY, Southern District of New York, is made up of eight
counties and draws jurors fromthose eight counties.
Elly (01:08):
I know.
Without researching every countyon my slow as hell Wi Fi, we can
extrapolate the data just byknowing that New York State
registered third party andunaffiliated voters account for
roughly 29 percent of voters.
Republicans account for 22%,totaling 51%.
Hey Donnie, that's more thanhalf.
And Democrats, 49.
(01:30):
Give or take, points either way,we're good to go.
So Trump's 3 to 6 percent numberis a bold faced lie, and unlike
Trump and his politicalfollowers, not all people stand
by their furor Fuh yuh ruh ruh.
Fuh yuh ruh ruh.
Fuh yuh ruh ruh.
Fuh yuh ruh ruh.
Just with these simple stats,the probability that he was
(01:51):
convicted because he has onlythree to six percent of comrades
in the jury pool is improbable.
Improbable because the number hespews from his lips is a lie.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
And comrade is an accurate term.
Ha ha ha ha His imaginations areworse than they sound.
Ben (02:12):
Ha ha, let's hear it.
Elly (02:14):
Okay.
Using his ridiculous three tosix percentage, he is suggesting
that
less than one person,
on the jury would be a comrade or be sympathetic
towards him and his outlandishcondemnations and word salads.
As you can see, Fugu is livingin Lie Lie Land, Did you see a
(02:39):
real bright light?
What a crock.
Ben (02:47):
What is probable is that there were most likely two or
three comrades on the jury.
Trump 2024!
Elly (03:02):
Don't forget another four possible sympathizers with the
people in the middle.
the unaffiliated voters.
Ben (03:09):
Correct.
And unlike Trump and hispolitical followers, not all
people stand by their commander.
commander.
Elly (03:18):
I like that my commander.
His minion's opinions do notchange the probability, nor does
it erase his guilt of the crimeshe has committed.
Ben (03:28):
Minion's Opinions?
What is that?
Ha, ha, ha, ha,
Elly (03:32):
ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
Even though his deceptiveaccordion waving fins and Fugu
flapping lips Say otherwise.
There's more.
Ben (03:48):
Okay, let's hear it.
Elly (03:50):
In New York and in most states, felonies are tried by 12
jurors that are selected fromthe counties that make up the
district.
In this felony case, the numberof jurors is 12, and their
decision must be unanimous infinding him guilty,
Ben (04:05):
Getting 12 strangers to agree on anything is like
pulling teeth from a Tasmaniandevil.
Elly (04:15):
Or a Republican.
Ben (04:18):
In addition, these jurors are randomly chosen from the
counties.
They report to the court and arevetted by the judge and
attorneys on both sides.
The judge also gives the jurorsscenarios when they should
dismiss themselves.
Elly (04:37):
Yeah, like needing to carry a gun so a crazy
hammerhead doesn't follow themhome, break in while they're
resting in their undies and thenproceed to beat them in the
skull with a claw hammer.
Ben (04:48):
Yes.
I was thinking the same thing.
Elly (04:51):
Mm hmm.
Just like Pelosi's husband.
Ben (04:55):
The judge and the attorneys then ask the jury questions as
to whether they have anyknowledge of the case Or.
have had specific experiencesthat might cause them to be
biased or unfair.
If either lawyer believes thatthe information that suggests a
juror is prejudiced about thecase, he or she can ask the
(05:19):
judge to dismiss that juror forcause.
Elly (05:23):
Would a painted flag on my face count?
Ben (05:28):
Alito would not make it into this jury selection.
Elly (05:31):
Oh no, that's for sure.
Ben (05:33):
Trump that bitch t shirts might be problematic also.
Elly (05:40):
Don't forget that in addition to challenges for
cause, each lawyer has aspecific number of peremptory
challenges.
These challenges permit a lawyerto excuse a potential juror
without stating a cause.
Ben (05:54):
So if a woman shows up in a white pantsuit?
Elly (05:58):
Oh, poor Hilary.
Or Her name is Gloria Steinem?
Ben (06:06):
Or her initials are AOC.
Elly (06:12):
I think not.
Fugu wouldn't feel comfortable.
Ben (06:18):
Finally, when both parties have agreed upon a jury, the
selected jurors are then swornin to fulfill their duty.
Those not selected are excused.
Elly (06:31):
Look, We all have experienced severe disagreements
within our families and closestfriends.
If there was a shred of doubt injust one of those jurors,
Ben (06:42):
Trump would have walked.
Elly (06:44):
Oh yeah.
As you can see, Fugu is livingin Lie Lie Land trump Land.
Oh, it just gets better.
Did you see a real bright light?
(07:05):
And if you think for one minutethat Trump's attorneys would
have allowed any jurors thatwere prejudicial against Trump,
well then I guess the dude'sthousands of dollars an hour are
unwarranted.
Ben (07:17):
Get that.
It's true.
That court appointed attorneysand bad attorneys often do a
terrible job during the juryselection process and all around
defense of their poor and middleclass clients.
But not likely for the elite,especially one so public.
Elly (07:36):
Mm hmm.
Everybody wants their 15 minutesin the spotlight.
I can charge more money for myspeeches, In this case, Judge
Murshad not only asked thepotential jurors about their
personal bias and prejudice andhow much media coverage of the
(07:59):
case that they saw or heard, butalso if they were in fear for
their safety and well being.
Mm hmm.
Where the hell we at?
North Korea?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haha.
Nobody is weak ass complainingon the Biden team about Hunter's
(08:19):
accountability.
Ben (08:21):
Or making up stories that the judge was unfair.
Elly (08:24):
Alvin Bragg just don't like me.
He plays the victim like TedBundy in a cast.
Ben (08:35):
Yes, he does.
I'm
Elly (08:36):
hurt, I'm hurt.
Help me, please, please help me.
Ben (08:40):
Al Capone said he didn't do it either.
Elly (08:43):
And Trump always compares himself to Capone.
Yes.
There is comparison.
You both lie, you both did it,you're both guilty, and you both
said you didn't do it.
That's right.
That's right.
Two words, Fugo, buck up.
Ben (08:59):
