In the late Friday filing, Trump argued that prosecutors want the trial held "in darkness" as part of what he claims is a politically motivated effort by President Joe Biden's administration to undermine his bid for re-election next year.

In his latest filing by his lawyers, John Lauro and Todd Blanche, Trump endorsed requests by media organizations that U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan allow live television coverage of the trial.

"Every person in America, and beyond, should have the opportunity to study this case firsthand and watch as, if there is a trial, President Trump exonerates himself of these baseless and politically motivated charges," said the filing.

Record the trial and release it after the verdict. We get the full transparency, with none of the spectacle during the proceedings.

They’re going to be screaming “martyr” no matter what they do, so might as well

I'm imagining a late night tv commercial that resembles Girls gone wild commercials. "See Trump like you've never seen before, raw, uncensored, and wild! Only 19.95, act now and get Trump the Sentencing for free, just pay shipping"
