Donald Trump wants cameras to see his trial.
His lawyers are backing an effort by media members to allow for cameras in the courtroom.
His attorneys said, “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.”
The Hill reported:
Attorneys for former President Trump backed an effort from media organizations to allow cameras for his federal election fraud trial next year, in a filing Friday.
They argued that allowing cameras in the courtroom would show how “unfairly” Trump is being treated by the justice system to the American public.
“President Trump calls for sunlight,” the attorneys wrote. “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.”
Trump has vehemently denied and denounced the criminal charges, which allege that he conspired to overturn the 2020 election. The case is set to go to trial in March.
