On FOX: Juror, a self-described Trump stalwart. Didn't want Manafort to be guilty. Decided he was.

This is a bit inspiring in a time when we have little of it. First Manafort juror to come forward. A self-described Trump stalwart. Didn't want Manafort to be guilty. Decided he was. Would have voted guilty on all counts.

To the clip, it sounds as if it WAS 11-1 on the hung jury counts but that she was NOT the 1—someone else was.

But, it only takes one. And our justice system is dangerously polluted.

She, the Dotard supporter, wanted to convict on all counts. One holdout on 11.

It seems that whenever a Trumpist breaks free from the cult, they get hassled and harassed for doing so. And now, with Russian mobsters in the mix...

Hope she stays safe.
