Philip Bump/Washington Post:
Donald Trump’s casual disparagement of prosecutors as ‘evil’ and ‘crazy’
One of the unusual aspects of the jury selection process for Donald Trump’s criminal trial in Manhattan is that he was forced to endure the uncommon experience of being with people who don’t like him. Jurors who were under consideration for service on the trial were shown their past social media posts and comments disparaging Trump while those comments were read out loud in the courtroom. For Trump, a guy who travels with a staffer whose job duties include printing out positive stories on a mobile printer for him to read, this was an unfamiliar experience.
Get used to it. There are a lot of weeks left in this trial alone.
