Although I predicted to friends and family that our 45th—and soon to be 47th—President Donald J. Trump would be convicted in the kangaroo court/sham trial in Manhattan, even I was unprepared for the breathtaking “Guilty On All Counts” verdict unsealed Thursday afternoon.

The breadth and impact of this action by 12 jurors—acting as twelve Pinocchios for Judge Juan Merchan’s Gepetto—proved our worst fears about their inability to be fair and impartial. In the face of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s absurd actions, running years-old misdemeanor cases through a food processor, he created never-before seen case law that made bookkeeping entries into “felonies.” And the men and women of the jury opted to rubber stamp not one, not a few, but all 34 of Bragg’s made-up charges…choosing to be swayed by convicted perjuror and Trump-hater Michael Cohen into an historic smear of a former president of the United States.

To call them spineless may seem too harsh to some, but let’s face it: among the men and women of this disgraceful jury were two lawyers…and a lawyer served as foreman of the panel. Search your heart and ask yourself if you really thought Manhattan attorneys would actually weigh the evidence fairly andever deliver a not guilty verdict, knowing that they would have to return to their law firms and face colleagues after “letting Trump go free.” Apparently you never watched the cable series Suits if you thought that was even a remote possibility.

I hope and pray other freedom loving Americans will join me. In addition to not helping fund atrocities like the Trump prosecution, I’m not predisposed to being carjacked by youth gangs or shoved onto subway tracks by mentally ill homeless vagrants. Nor did I have any desire—even before the legal lynching of President Trump this week—to book an overpriced hotel room in a city that funnels dangerous illegals onto the same hotel floors as paying guests.

To paraphrase Patrick Henry, I care not what others may do. But as for myself, the Big Apple is dead to me.
