The judge in former President Donald Trump’s upcoming trial over his handling of classified documents made two key errors in a June trial, one of which violated a fundamental constitutional right of the defendant and could have invalidated the proceedings, according to legal experts and a court transcript.The Judges decision to:

1)  Close the courtroom represents “a fundamental constitutional error,” said Stephen Smith, a professor at the Santa Clara School of Law in California. “She ignored the public trial right entirely. It’s as though she didn’t know it existed.”
 2)  Close jury selection, the judge cited space restrictions in her small courtroom at the federal courthouse in Fort Pierce, Florida.   

Legal experts said closing a courtroom to the public has been recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court as a “structural error” — a mistake so significant that it can invalidate a criminal trial because it strikes at the heart of the entire process. A public trial also has been found to implicate First Amendment rights of freedom of assembly, speech and press.

WHAT does it say about a Judge, a Process, and the Political Party... WHEN the Judge PROSTRATES herself, and SACRIFICES JUSTICE...  for a POLITICAL GOAL ?  

IT STRIKES at the very HEART of Democracy !!

If they are "reversed" SOONER rather than later... with each reversal, the CASE that the FBI, DOJ, and Democrat Party have been trying to FRAME Donald Trump, OR, at least make the public believe he was crooked (i.e. Election Interference)... ALL ALONG...  and MORE and MORE people will realize it has been the Democrat Party, and their CROOKED DOJ and FBI who have been the DIRTY ONES all along !
