I know right??....In another thread I am getting rung for not being willing to predict an outcome and I am all "Wait a minute, I dont have very much information, I am in no position to say".

This seems to make me strange.

Yeah, and if it doesn't turn out the way they were sure it would then most will move in to conspiracy theories on why they were wrong. See: 2016 Election

It means the usual leftist suspects will riot and cause mayhem.

Well, we already have CNN and other media outlets trying to dox the jurors, so that ship has sailed. The media aren't a fringe group...well, not fringe in the context of people today.

The charges have nothing to do with Trump. The only reason he got charged was because of his connection to Trump. Even though the charges have nothing to do with Trump, or the Trump campaign, this is seen as some kind of related matter to the rabid left who NEED this decision and feel it will be some kind of validation for collusion, or some such nonsense.

Ah...I find it funny when people write such things as you did and understand that reading comprehension has been an epic fail. So sad.

Actually, it does, because a guilty verdict has nothing to do with Trump or his campaign as they were things that happened years ago.

If you actually believe that then you're the one letting partisanship blind you.

Manafort cheated on his taxes and committed bank fraud, and there's concrete proof of it. Don't ask me for it, use a search engine and actually let the facts speak for themselves.

What juror number are you? Also, you didn't even address the point, which was that the prosecution was making a weak and pathetic attempt to sway the jury with the emotional case of "eat the rich".

The default is that the names or the jurors are public record.

E.g. https://www.rcfp.org/browse-media-l...d-law-summer-2016/right-access-juror-names-an



Obviously some of those factors apply here, including Manafort's ties to organized crime and the extensive publicity that might expose them to intimidatino or harassment. But the general rule is the jury's names are public knowledge.

But...in this trial, the jurors names aren't public fecord. Right?

What exactly did I get wrong about the Manafort tenure with the Trump campaign?

I see the personal attack on me - but where is the refutation of my statement?

How about your read what was being responded to, as that is pertinent to your statement. Also, someone who writes "In the delusional alternate reality of TRUTH IS NOT TRUTH that Trumpkins occupy" acting aghast at a factual call out of their failure to properly read, as if it's some kind of personal attack is hilariously ironic.

The charges don’t; however, it’s odd that Trump’s most ardent supporters are pulling for Manafort to get off when he’s pretty clearly slimy at best.

Conversely, it's odd to see the left so invested in this decision, as if it validates the intended purpose of the Mueller probe and Russian collusion by Trump and his campaign.

Since you still couldn't figure it out, I'll make one attempt and then move on.

We are a country where the judge presiding over the trial of someone connected to Trump, for something that has zero to do with Trump, has U.S. Marshals protecting him because he's gotten death threats.

This is what you were responding to. The charges brought against Manafort have nothing to do with Trump, or his campaign. These things are all several years old.

Regardless Manafort is criminal scum. Those that defend him do so at risk to their own reputations ...

He is Trump's Campaign Manager. You don't see the connection? Why he got investigated?
