This trial should absolutely be televised. That is the only way all Americans hear the same story. Otherwise, each reporter from each tv channel can and will tell their own version

[californiacat]

Decent people are sick of him. I will be glad when we don't have to see him anymore

[sushibar]

The judge should kick things off with a gag order, and make it clear to both the prosecution and the defense that any violation of the gag order will have immediate consequences.

[sahgentpeppah]

These current charges may be the weakest of the many indictments to come, but this criminal needs to be held accountable. We have to start somewhere.

[laurirohr]

Lock him up.
Just one crime after another & a traitor.I
Real Americans want Justice!

[willowwren]

What’s it going to take to lock this traitor up🤬

[robbiekeen]

DJT needs to be given a gag order because then we all know it'll be another charge cause he cant keep his mouth shut. And better yet once he violates the gag order put him in jail awaiting trial or ankle bracelet with no media devices allowed. No tv, no phone, computer, no visitors, NOTHING 😂 and if legal ppl need to visit, only with court supervision. Treat him like hes in jail.

[leahtaylor]

All of the crimes this man has gotten away with are just plain disgusting 🤬😠😡😠🤬

[Nofashists]

The Judge is going to put a gag order on him, he’ll break it in minutes

[ayungclas]

Can’t wait for SNL’s take on the after indictment speech.

[michaelcarltock]

Judge should put a gag order till a jury is picked

[loriar]

This whole thing is just beyond bizarre. Just when I think it can’t get any weirder, it does. I feel like we’re living in the Twilight Zone.

[allisone]

Elected officials and especially the president should be held to a higher standard period!

[lordchaa]

You can be assured, whatever the worst and most damaging choice he is given, that will be the one he chooses.

[electricgigolo]

Televising it would also not allow him or the far right media to spread misinformation about what's happening in the court. We can see it all live for ourselves.

[nicole]

Let him talk and watch how he incriminates himself even more 😂

[jaykay]

Stop the grift: If he’s convicted, sentence him according to the laws of the United States.

[mairirose]

In a democracy…NO ONE is above the law….he blatantly thumbs his nose at any and all laws…he thinks they do not pertain to him…ridiculous…all of these traitors disgust me and I sincerely hope each and everyone have to answer for what they did and what they are still trying to do….

“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”

[sambabisky]

The case MUST be shown to the public in real time. If not the lies will be with out precedence.
