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.

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

          Uh no. He’s not going to see everyone in the same room with him. It’s a court room.

          Look, I’d love for it to be a ridiculous clown show as much as anyone else but your in for a lot of disappointment if that’s what you’re expecting. He’s going to sit there and act just like hes acted in all the other many many court cases he’s been in.

        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.
