Donald Trump says he boycotted last week’s arraignment in Georgia on election interference charges to protest in-court camera coverage of his upcoming trial.
The former president claimed in a fundraising email that he was infuriated by Fulton County judge Scott McAfee’s decision to allow all hearings and a possible trial to be broadcast on the court’s YouTube channel.
“Why would I fly down to Atlanta just to hear over a dozen FALSE CHARGES brought against me on live TV?” Mr Trump wrote in a message to supporters obtained by the New York Post pleading for more money.
Yep. For all the people saying “but trump is great on camera”. You’ve been suckered too. When he can’t control the narrative or immediately discredit the evidence against him he is largely powerless and looks like the common crook he is.
Considering he can’t keep his mouth shut I think there’s a very real chance we see him slapped with contempt and tossed in the clink.
Oh how glorious it would be to see him in an orange jumpsuit.
