The Georgia trial of Donald Trump on charges he conspired to overturn the 2020 election will be televised and livestreamed, according to the Fulton County Judge.
Yeah. While I absolutely have a bias and want to see this fucker convicted, I feel like no matter what, it's going to have at least one "Where were you when...." moment.
Almost every generation has a couple. Where were you when JFK was shot? When the Challenger exploded? During 9/11? When Columbia burned up?
I mean, obviously, reading the verdict is going to be there, but I feel like there's going to be some real courtroom horseshit / ooohhhh shiiit moments too.
I was alive for the Columbia explosion, 9/11, the Challenger explosion, and Reagan's attempted assassination. I saw them all as highlight reels on TV hours after the facts. I saw OJ's glove escapade on the evening news. I expect there to be a Trump trial moment like that, but I don't need to see it live, and I definitely don't need to sit through hour after hour of courtroom procedure waiting to see that one moment.
I'm glad the trial will be recorded for posterity. That seems like the best way to answer claims of shenanigans in any trial. Actually watching the trial, all the way through, seems a little too much like watching Nascar hoping to see a big crash.

NASCAR is not just about watching cars going around in a circle waiting for a crash.
It's "a day at the beach" for those who don't have an ocean nearby. Tailgate parties and beautiful people dressed for the occasion. A reason to relax and enjoy.
Not a slight, it was a mademesmile perspective. Something a Cosmic Cleric might say when someone belittles something they don't fully understand. I've never been to one either but the comment made me want to go to there.
I think it's going to be the exact opposite. They'll make a mockery of the justice system and turn it into a circus. The media will report every day and Drumph will keep his name continuously talked about. Meanwhile his team will watch what is reported nightly so they can strategize a narrative for "his viewers" while at the same time going as close to whatever line(s) as they can without crossing, but still keeping it a spectacle. It'll be even worse than the 4 years he was president.
I was going to say that the conspiracy theorists would watch it simply to figure out all the ways this is a Jewish-space-laser-controlled judge presiding over an adrenochrome -addicted jury, with all the officers of the court being lizardmen in humanskin.
Then I realized that was simply too much effort for them; they'll just get their conspiracies from Fox and Tucker, and Joe Rogan as usual.
