There are two rules of jury nullification:

  1. You don't talk about jury nullification

  2. You nullify

0 chances he’s getting a legit trial if they even bother to have a show trial

I'd be surprised if they haven't executed him already.

There's a non-zero chance he gets the bin Laden burial at sea treatment

Nah that's what you do if you're worried about being embarrassed at a trial, or you fucked up the body. (That is my personal theory, that the special forces guy did some war crime shit to the body of Bin Laden so they couldn't show it off) Trump believes this is great and is gonna make him look good.

unfortunately we're at the stage where there is no process, only power. there will be no jury and if there is it will be Exxon shareholders

How do they even begin to assemble a jury for that

I mean, how would they if it was gonna be a legit trial

Why would there be a jury trial? Not questioning under the grounds that the state would blow it off (though they would) but under what circumstances would it be reasonable to try the head of a foreign state with a civilian jury? Excepting I guess them visiting and performing criminal acts.
