Therefore, the Defendant cannot get a fair trial.
Imagine going to a trial and asking that no Republicans be permitted on your jury. Because they cannot issue a fair verdict.
Trump accused his Manhattan jury of being "95%" Democrat in an interview a couple of days ago.
Why don't we just divide the country down the middle between Democrats and Republicans so that Donald Trump can get a fair shake?
What a sad view of this country.

My calculator tells me 95 percent of twelve is 11.4 so six tenths of one juror could be Republican?
