Viva Frei concludes his analysis by labeling Judge Juan Merchan a "political operative" who has consistently ruled in favor of the prosecution. He notes that the gag order on Trump prevented him from defending himself against insults from Robert De Niro and the testimony of Michael Cohen. As the jury begins deliberations, Frei remains on "jury watch," suggesting that anything short of a unanimous acquittal serves the deep state's goal of bogging down Trump's campaign.
