44. Depends on the case the idiot is tried for

If the trial is for the stolen documents, tax evasion, tax fraud, or the Georgia election tampering, then I don't see a jury giving an outright innocent verdict. A hung jury is the best he could hope for with any of those.

I'd like to think 12 Americans are smart enough to grasp his guilt in plotting J6, but the cynic in me fears that most Americans are so irredeemably stupid that they'd accept whatever excuse he or his shysters make up to let him walk on that. Hope for a trial held in DC for this one. That jury pool is our best bet for holding the scumbag accountable.
