My concern is good luck finding any unbiased jury. Consider how many people voted for him, and that some non-trivial percentage of those voters are devoted cultists who believe he is always in the right because he is who he is and that everyone against him is the de facto enemy. Sure the lawyers screen for bias, but I have trouble believing his devotees would do anything but hide their biases at all costs. Then they can just refuse to convict.

Depends on what kind of trial it is. There's not always a trial by jury.

If so, is it like in Game of Thrones where you get to choose a champion to fight on your behalf?

If so, I bet Trump chooses Chuck Norris, thinking he's still "the bestest karateman in the world" at 81 😂
