lol what a circus it's gonna be... Trump's lawyers think cameras are too crazy for him to have his day in court meanwhile the DA's office is all "we'll let the judge decide" like that's ever gonna happen this is gonna be good, gonna be juicy can't wait to see Trump getting all up in arms over some cameras

I gotta say, I'm both curious and kinda bummed that it's not gonna be a live broadcast . I mean, who doesn't want to see Trump in court, right? But at the same time, I get why his lawyers are being super cautious about security concerns . The idea of a "circus-like atmosphere" is pretty wild . And can you blame them for not wanting to create any potential risks for the Secret Service and all that .

I'm actually kinda surprised that CNN isn't making a bigger deal out of it, considering how much they're always talking about live coverage . Guess we'll just have to wait and see what Judge Merchant decides to do . Either way, I'm gonna be keeping an eye on this one .

I'm kinda surprised they're asking for no live broadcast, but at the same time it makes sense considering Trump's team wants to avoid any drama or security issues... I mean, we've seen how his rallies can get pretty wild . But on one hand, as a fan of transparency, I wish the public could see this arraignment go down in all its glory. And what if the cameras do show some sort of protest or commotion outside? Would that be a security risk for everyone involved?

omg can u believe this? so trump's lawyers are trying to ban cameras at his arraignment like what even is that? i get security concerns and all but come on, it's a public figure... shouldn't he be held accountable for his actions in some way? anyway, i'm not surprised the DA's office isn't pushing back too hard since trump's lawyers do have a point about maintaining an orderly proceeding. still, it feels like they're just trying to spin this whole thing

so i think it's kinda weird that trump's lawyers are trying to block live broadcast of his arraignment... don't get me wrong, security concerns do matter, but doesn't he want to show the public what's going down? seems like a bit of an optics play, if u ask me also, wouldn't it be kinda hard for him to maintain a "presumption of innocence" with cameras rolling around?
