Former President Donald Trump’s jury selection remains underway in New York, with 7 out of 12 seats filled by Tuesday afternoon from a pool of 96 potential jurors. But so far, the jury of the former president’s “peers” seems to have a common attribute — they largely get their news from the same left-wing media that have spent years disparaging Trump.
Of the 96 possible jurors, more than half were “dismissed immediately Monday after indicating that they could not fairly reach a decision,” The New York Times (NYT) reported. Some jurors who made it through to Tuesday later stepped down, with one admitting “I don’t think I can be as impartial and unbiased as I hoped I could be,” according to the Times.
