I don't think Chauvin has ANY support from anywhere.

kneeled on a handcuffed man’s neck for at least 8 minutes and 40 seconds too long.

Barring a hung jury from an ignorant rube holdout, Chauvin is doomed.

laying the grounds for that one racist juror to find doubt. "There's more to it than a man kneeling on his back". And most of the comments below the videos agree with him.

I didn't watch it, obviously, but the title of it was something to the effect of, "Prosecution in Chauvin trial is beginning to fall apart."

I know he just makes stuff up and all (I don't buy for a second that the prosecution is even struggling a bit), but does he have to OPENLY ROOT for a murderer to walk free?

Chauvin's ass is mostly likely grass, especially after the pulmonologist testified.

I read around conservative blogs, and you just don't see a lot of defense of him.

He even made a snide comment about Dr Tobin's accent at one point.

How many times has he mentioned George Floyd's size? Superhuman strength?
