Donald Trump has been sent home without being picked for a jury.
The billionaire candidate for president reported for jury duty in New York City on Monday. He was released at the end of the day without being selected to serve on a case.
He has now fulfilled his civic obligation and can get back on the campaign trail.
Outside the courthouse, he said that it was “nice” to see how the system functions and that he had met some “really lovely” people.
The Republican front-runner arrived in the morning in a long black limousine and had to make his way through a crush of cameras and reporters. He got both boos and shouts of “Donald!” from onlookers.
He found himself sitting in a waiting room next to ordinary, subway-riding, wage-earning New Yorkers.

Thank you AP. And what’s wrong with that? If someone wants to be President of the United States and “represent” us , he should mingle and talk with the average hard working taxpaying legal citizen who wasn’t born with a silver spoon in their mouth. “They” are the majority in this Country, not the rich and famous. Isn’t it the Donald who claims to represent the “litte” guy, not the big Corporations? Ahh, they’re all the same. Romney, Bloomberg, Clinton, Bush, Trump, etc… Because of their great wealth & protected/coddled life, its not shaich for them to “understand” and “feel” (to be Nosei Be’ol) with the majority of Americans. Someone like a Sanders or a Huckabee, can.
Actually Hillary Clinton grew up middle class, not wealthy, and her husband grew up poor.
