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.

    Nah. He’s not like that in court. You can watch him in any of his previous court appearances (he’s been there a lot). He sits there and listens and says I don’t recall a lot, or he answers questions.

    Trump knows how courts work. He doesn’t grandstand when he’s there.

        It’s still a court room. It’s not like there’s stadium seating.

          There’ll be more people watching than likely any other live event in history; he quite literally will never have and has never had a larger platform.

            I guess.
            Except for that time he was president lol.

            You have this fantasy of how it’s going to go, but the reality is going to much more boring. The guy has been in a lot court rooms. It’s a game he knows well.
