Trump jurors will be selected from one of 'the most brightly red corners' of Florida: report

Former President Donald Trump is set to get a very favorable jury pool for his upcoming trial for pilfering top-secret government documents.

The Daily Beast's Jose Pagliery reports that Judge Aileen Canon's decision to hold Trump's trial at a satellite courthouse far away from West Palm Beach means that "Trump’s jurors are set to be drawn from the most brightly red corner of a vast court district, plucked from a community that leans heavily Republican—instead of the highly populous and more Democratic urban areas further south."

What's more, notes Pagliery, this means that "the proceedings will take place 70 miles north of the oceanside mansion where Trump amassed sensitive national security documents without permission—even though the West Palm Beach federal courthouse is down the street."

In other words, it seems that special counsel Jack Smith's team will have to pay extra attention to weeding out any MAGA maniacs who will vote to acquit Trump no matter what evidence is presented.

But Paul Bernard, a defense attorney in Fort Pierce, tells Pagliery that he doesn't believe Smith will be able to strike every Trump supporter during the jury selection process.

"With Trump’s trial down this way, he’s going to have a bunch of supporters—and they’re going to make their way onto the jury panel," he said.
