As expected, Judge Juan Merchan yesterday morning provided jurors in Donald Trump’s hush-money case with instructions on how to deliberate. What was far less expected, however, was the former president and his allies pushing a very specific falsehood about those jury instructions. In the late morning, for example, a Fox News host published a message to social media that read in part, “Judge Merchan just told the jury that they do not need unanimity to convict.
He practiced law before beginning a lengthy career as a lawmaker. The GOP senator, in other words, doesn’t have an excuse for getting this wrong — and he most certainly flubbed the details in this instance. I can appreciate the fact that the relevant nuances are complex. My MSNBC colleague Hayes Brown took a deep dive into the matter in his latest column, and I read it twice just to make sure I fully understood the underlying issue.
