3. If it goes to trial I'm sure Trump will threaten the jury each and every day

And if the jury acquits Comey, their names and addresses will be mysteriously leaked.

I know everyone says this is a weak case. I believe that is the overall point that Trump is going to hold over everyone. It doesn't matter if it's a shame case. He will bully and threaten until he gets a guilty verdict.

I posted a few days ago that this case will blow up in his face. I've since realized it can't. Any acquittal will result in Trump saying that Democrats have ruined the justice system and that they shouldn't be allowed to serve on juries. And if he bullies and threatens his way to a conviction, the flood gates will open.
