What do we do then. He has been charged with a crime. Should we just not try him? Are ex-presidents immune to criminal liability?
I think when every single American citizen is equally contaminated, no citizen is contaminated.
You were never going to find an American juror that hadn't heard of OJ Simpson.

What? Tons of people have no idea who oj simpson is, even today. Sure, he was a famous football player. He wasn't the literal president of the entire country over which the jury pool is being selected.
Also there were not throngs of people completely poised, eager and ready to convict OJ simpson on literally any charge before he killed his wife. The evidence against him was absolutely overwhelming from day 1, in contrast to this trump derangement performative clown show which is the legal equivalent to an angry kid getting revenge on their older brother for teasing them.
The charges should be dismissed. That's what we should do, because they have no merit. The charges against OJ simpson should not have been dismissed, because they had a *ton* of merit- because they had a *ton* of unambiguous evidence against him. Get the difference yet?
