Just found out Republicans want to amend the Constitution:

Add the words "except when we are pretty sure the guy is guilty" to Article 3, Section 2 so that it would read: Except when we are pretty sure the guy is guilty, the Trial of all Crimes, except in Cases of Impeachment, shall be by Jury; and such Trial shall be held in the State where the said Crimes shall have been committed; but when not committed within any State, the Trial shall be at such Place or Places as the Congress may by Law have directed.
