In this episode of Hawk Droppings Hawk provides a detailed recap of the first day of Donald Trump's criminal trial in Manhattan. Hawk discusses the various pre-trial motions and evidentiary issues that were addressed, including the exclusion of certain evidence related to Trump's alleged affairs and the Access Hollywood tape.

Hawk explains the jury selection process, noting that over 50 of the initial 96 potential jurors were excused after stating they could not be impartial. He highlights Judge Mershon's no-nonsense approach, ordering Trump to be present in court every day or face arrest. Hawk also criticizes a Fox News personality for encouraging Trump supporters to commit perjury and lie to get on the jury, calling it potential jury tampering.

Overall, Hawk paints a picture of a chaotic first day, with Trump appearing disheveled and falling asleep at the defense table. He predicts the jury selection process will take at least two weeks, as the judge seeks to find impartial jurors who can fairly evaluate the evidence, which Hawk argues goes beyond just the falsification of business records and into the realm of campaign finance violations and election interference.
