    Fulton County regularly allows cameras into the courtroom, and sometimes they run it on YouTube, It’s from their public access tv channel and it’s how we watched the Stop Cop City council meeting, so it’s not just because it’s the Donald circus. Fulton county is pretty open with court cases.

    As for why it should be televised, we deserve to see the evidence and have the whole picture laid out, you deserve to hear what the Government’s case is against him and if it helps even 10 percent of his followers to see the light, that’s a plus.

        I’d actually find that entertaining. It will be entertaining anyway, but that would just be hilarious if done well.

    I’m so tired of the theater and circus, can we just try him and get his ass incarcerated already. We don’t need a damn Netflix special comma we need justice.

      Yes, and as much as it was tv drama, I think it did overall help people form opinions not based entirely on believing what they’re told.

      Yes, bad actors will edit conveniently, but it feels better then being able to make up everything.

    Indict a clown, expect a circus. Too much free publicity. Keep him out of the media. He craves attention. Deny him that. The only thing I wanna see live is his perp walk to prison.

      Thing is. His lawyer will do that anyway. He can talk over people in real life, but that won’t work in court. It’s actually a good thing because he can’t easily lie, and he doesn’t control the dialogue.

      This isn’t the kind of attention that benefits him

    Because what we really need is a 100 million armchair lawyers weighing in on every objection with the utmost authority.
