My prediction for the current Donald Trump trial.....

Unfortunately,I see around a ,%70 chance he will be convicted.Look,the jurors,although hopelessly biased ,are not stupid.They consist of teachers,lawyers etc.They know right well the entire affair is a farce,but they probably won't care .It will be like the O.J Simpson trial;they knew what they were going to do before the first witness was called.But there is a small chance ,about %3O in my estimation,that it could turn into a "12 angry men "situation.One juror might have personal integrity and realize that,while he/she might hate Donald Trump,the trial is a farce and that it's not acceptable to convict people -even ones who they may personally despise -on manufactured charges in what amounts to the American version of a Soviet show trial.Not likely,but not totally outside the realm of possiblity.

If he is convicted, the trial will be easily overturned, since the judge acted improperly. (Allowed hearsay testimony, for example)

He never should have been put on trial. When he wins back the presidency and takes the oath of office, first thing he has to do is reform the Department of Justice and have that Banana Republic judge disbarred.

@Reason10 If convicted,the trial SHOULD be easily overturned(actually,the case should have been thrown out and the D.A subject to an ethics review for even attempting to file it)but since the New York legal system has clearly been corrupted,I suspect there won't be a chance of winning on appeal untill the case gets into Federal Court.
