  • The Manhattanites were questioned for the tax fraud jury.

  • One person expressed a positive opinion of the former president.

  • Trump is a scam artist and has a personality disorder, according to other rejected jurors.

They said he was a liar and a scam artist.

There was a cancer hospital nurse who said, "I struggle with the fact that I believe Mr. Trump's thoughts and actions are fundamentally guided by a personality disorder."

The 15th floor courtroom where the Trump Organization is on trial for tax- fraud charges is where the worst things were said about Donald Trump.

Three people who expressed dislike for Trump but were willing to be fair were seated.

These other Manhattan residents aren't included. Prosecutors had to agree that their observations on Trump should be excused.

He perpetuates the "big lie" every day, according to an Upper East Side woman who is a city public school administrator.

She said it was a problem.

I have an opinion, so that's what I have. That is the basis of my opinion. Do you want to know more?

The workman's compensation lawyer was a strong critic of Trump.

I don't like him very much. He is a fraud and a scam artist. He said that he was a danger to our society. I don't believe his university is legit. His charity isn't legit. He doesn't like the truth.

The contractor from Hell's Kitchen promised to be fair.

He said that he was a small man, but he wasn't on trial.

When a defense lawyer asked a prospective juror what a small man meant, the contractor said he was emotional.

A woman was kicked out of a jury trial after telling a prospective juror there was no chance in hell.

The prospective juror said Tuesday that he couldn't sleep after his first day of jury duty.

He explained that he had had bad memories from when Trump was in office. It was making him nauseated.

The middle-aged man told the judge that he hadn't felt like that since Donald Trump was president.

It's not a good thing for me to be here.

The defense and prosecution were asked if they objected to the man being let go. The people did not.

The judge said thank you to him. "You are free to go."

Several reporters asked the man if he wanted to speak more.

He apologized and ran for the exit.

The opening statements are scheduled for Monday.
