Trump has the game theory advantage in terms of jury selection. Both sides would benefit from sympathetic jurors, but trump only needs 1 juror secretly manipulating things for him or to find him Not Guilty in order to go free, where the prosecution needs all 12 jurors, sympathetic or otherwise, to find him Guilty.
There are some defences against a rogue juror, but assuming a trump insider weren’t an idiot (big assumption, yes) they could find ways bringing others into their thinking.
