Who hasn't seen it and is unbiased? permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] squiblet@kbin.social 27 points 3 years ago (1 child) That's the problem with finding unbiased juries for extremely high profile cases or defendants. If you manage to find someone who hasn't heard of Trump or is actually neutral about him.... what has this person been doing if they've really never heard of him? or, , how could anyone have no real opinion about one of the most confrontational and aggressive politicians in recent history? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] shutuuplegs@reddthat.com 15 points 3 years ago There is a difference between not heard of it and willing to weigh the evidence laid in front of them. Both sides will axe all who have strong opinions. It will be difficult, but not impossible.
