Justice Juan Merchan slams former president for his āaudibleā remarks and gestures towards potential juror
TheĀ ManhattanĀ judge presiding overĀ Donald TrumpāsĀ hush money trialĀ slammed the former president for āaudiblyā commenting about a juror and āgesticulatingā towards her.
āI wonāt tolerate it. I will not have any jurors intimidated in this courtroom,ā said an incensedĀ New YorkĀ JusticeĀ Juan Merchan. āI want to make that crystal clear.ā
The former presidentās legal team, afterĀ questioning a first-round of potential jurors who could deliver a verdict against him, asked to speak with one potential juror who appeared to post a video on social media showing New Yorkers celebrating. Defence attorney Todd Blanche said it appeared to be anti-Trump.
Thens he a fucking coward and they should get a judge who will not give in terrorist. I swear he could probably talk shit to the judges face continue to talk about the jury and they wonāt do shit.
