The Georgia trial of Donald Trump on charges he conspired to overturn the 2020 election will be televised and streamed live, according to Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee.
McAfee issued an order Thursday stating that all court proceedings involving Trump and his 18 co-conspirators will be broadcast via a television pool. The Fulton Co. Courts’ YouTube channel will stream the trials live.
In addition, the judge ruled that reporters will be allowed to have computers and cell phones inside the courtroom, as long as they don’t record the proceedings.
Is he going on the stand?
His age and drug habits would make that a terrible move, on top of the fact he literally cannot shut up. If he had good lawyers, there would be no possible way in hell they would physically allow him to take the stand even if he insisted on it. Luckily for anyone rooting against him, he has truly terrible lawyers that know they’re probably not getting paid at the end of this either way.
A great lawyer would just put a scale under the stand.
*A scale that says the weight out loud
I read that the PAC he’s using to pay for his legal defenses is running low on money, maybe he will go pro se to save some cash
He might. That’s a choice he and his lawyers will make.
I can’t remember which investigation it was while he was president, but the lawyers argued he’s too dumb or incompetent to be deposed without perjuring himself. Eventually they agreed to 10 questions written and he was allowed lawyers with him to answer.
Any good lawyer will tell the court he isn’t testifying and try to keep trump from talking in and out the court.
It would be an interesting choice if he did.
He would be fucked and I would love to watch it
