Anyone smarter than me in law know if there is even a remote chance he walks?

Aside from the nullification and hung jurys, there's a good chance for a mistrial from them parading him around and letting everyone in the US know he fought for them.

I'm not good at law but I have heard from people smarter than me that there are chances for at least a hung jury (I think could be retried) and there's also another option called jury nullification, where the jury essentially says, "yeah we know he is guilty but we don't agree with the law in this case" and acquits.

There is absolutely no way. That jury is going to be tampered with more than any you've ever seen in history.
