The guys lawyer claimed the verdict should be thrown out because one, DC is not a state and two, because he couldn't get a jury of his peers who liked Trump.

If that's not a third rate legal argument, I've never heard one.

Besides, we don't usually seat insurrectionists on juries here in the US...
