You know what? I’m gonna let Saturday Night Live Weekend Update host Colin Jost take this one.
“This has to be the dumbest trial I’ve ever seen. Here’s how dumb it was. The jurors who were deciding the case were the ones attacked by the defendant. The trial took place at the scene of the crime. And then right after the trial ended, one of the jurors who voted to acquit Trump” — here we see a photo of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell — “ran out and said, ‘Someone’s got to prosecute this guy, he did it! This man belongs in jail!'”
This really isn’t all that complex. That’s exactly what happened, and Jost is right that it’s the dumbest trial.
