In a recent letter, “Bananas comparison,” Ira Rubinfeld writes that Donald Trump “will be represented by counsel of his choice at a trial before a jury of his peers.”
But who are Trump’s peers? The dictionary defines peer as “one that is of equal standing with another, especially, one belonging to the same societal group especially based on age, grade, or status.”
Thus, to be Trump’s peer, you must:
Be a former president
Be in his/her 70s years of age
Be a billionaire or multi-millionaire
Have declared bankruptcy multiple times
Admitted to being a womanizer and seducer
Have been indicted for paying hush money
Have had to have sicced a mob on the capitol to over throw an election
Have had to have called the Georgia Secretary of State asking for him to find votes
Have been a former reality TV host
The list goes on and on.
Seems that if Trump was convicted by any jury, he could appeal based on the contention that the jury was not made up of his peers.
