MAGA Senator Slammed After Suggesting Trump Trial Jurors May Not Be American Citizens

GOP Senator Tommy Tuberville was swiftly called out after questioning whether the jurors in Trump's hush money trial are actually American citizens, claiming the trial is putting the ex-President through 'mental anguish.'

Republican Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville was lambasted for suggesting the jurors in former Republican President Donald Trump's election interference trial may not be American citizens.

Trump's former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, testified this week about his involvement in falsifying business records relating to the $130,000 Trump paid before the 2016 presidential election to silence adult film star Stormy Daniels, who alleged she had a sexual encounter with Trump in 2006.


Trump has pleaded not guilty to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records with the intent of concealing the hush money payment to benefit his campaign by covering up a potentially damaging story ahead of the election.

Outside the Lower Manhattan courtroom on Monday, Tuberville stood before media and ranted:

"I am disappointed at looking at the American—supposedly American citizens in that courtroom—that the DA comes in and he acts like it is his Superbowl."
"And I guess it is. To be noticed."

He continued:

"But that's what's happening in this country."
"The Republican candidate for president of the United States is going through mental anguish in a courtroom that's very depressing."
"Very depressing."

The Biden-Harris campaign team also shared the video..

"Tommy Tuberville attacks the jurors, suggesting they aren’t American citizens, and says they’re putting Trump through 'mental anguish,'" read the X (formerly Twitter) post.

Trump could risk going to jail if he continues to violate the gag order in place to prevent him from attacking witnesses or members of the jury during the trial.

So, some folks online have posited that he's simply having surrogates do it for him.




Others continued mocking the Senator's meltdown and his attempt to elicit sympathy for the presumptive GOP nominee.


Users were not letting up.





Cohen returned to the witness stand on Tuesday for his second day of testimony against his former boss.
