America’s judicial system was mapped out by our founders to be one of total impartiality, a system that can be relied on to settle cases in the correct manner. However, now more than ever in recent history, people are beginning to question how exactly unbaised is the judicial system, not the system itself, but those who run it. Most of these questions have been brought up by the trial of Former President Donald Trump, who was convicted of 34 counts of falsifying business records which is a felony in New York. Regardless of your opinion about the Former President it is important to take into account some strange circumstances in which the trial was held. One example includes the location, New York and specifically New York City is known to be a heavily Democratic stronghold, therefore it already raises a suspicion about the jury’s possible bias. Another example includes the judge himself, a self described Democrat it is clear that doubt over how exactly impartial this case isn’t exactly unreasonable. A recent talking point that does bring up an interesting question is “if they can do this to a multimillionare who also served as President what could they do to a regular American who might not have the credentials or the money to defend himself?” This case does beg one final question, how hard exactly would it have been for the trial to be held in an impartial state or even just an impartial county in New York with an impartial judge where any rulling against the Former President could be easily respected without any possible ammunition for doubt?
