Trump's Attorneys Question Jurors In Impeachment Trial

Former U.S. President Donald Trump campaigns in Derry, New Hampshire

During the trial of former President Trump, his attorneys are actively engaging in questioning the jurors. Susan Necheles, one of Trump's attorneys, took the lead in questioning the jurors after Todd Blanche had done so on Tuesday.

Necheles started by addressing the jurors about the possibility of witnesses contradicting themselves during the trial. She urged the jurors to rely on common sense when evaluating such situations. Necheles posed a hypothetical scenario to the jurors, asking if they would believe that someone is lying if two witnesses provide completely opposite testimonies under oath.

Following her question, there was no audible response from the jurors. Necheles then proceeded to highlight that some government witnesses may harbor personal animosity towards President Trump. She asked the jurors to consider the credibility of witnesses who have expressed a desire for revenge against the former president.

Once again, there was no audible response from the jurors to Necheles' inquiry. The line of questioning by Trump's attorneys aims to prompt the jurors to critically assess the testimonies presented during the trial and to consider potential biases or motives behind the statements made by witnesses.
