Why would jurors be harder to buy than career politicians? Especially when there are probably no career consequences for a juror if such a scheme found out.
The other obvious problem is jury selection. You can basically choose the outcome by selecting the "right" jury.

Are you truly sincere in your question regarding the ability to buy off career politicians vs random peers? Are you aware of jury tampering laws? > The other obvious problem is jury selection. You can basically choose the outcome by selecting the "right" jury. I was unaware you are so passionate about reforming the current jury system. What groups are you currently working with to improve the existing system? I can agree there are flaws in the current system but rather than throwing my hands up in defeat I think such problems can be addressed. How would you better address the issue from the linked article?

Whatever flaws the American justice system has, and they are legion, especially for non billionaire former presidents, it does appear to be the last place where you can’t just say whatever the fuck you want regardless of reality.” That’s the energy I want to bring to congress. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qmxzQJt80XI&t=660 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qmxzQJt80XI&t=660
