still gets lawyers, he still gets the chance to precipitate. but regular ordinary people can say, this is the law, and it has to be followed. if we cannot defend our basic system, i think we are in trouble? anderson, if i could. anderson. go ahead, alyssa. there is precedent in georgia for having had cameras in courtrooms for trials similar to this, which i know that we are expecting the federal cases. so i do think that that could have a noticeable impact on the public s perception. if they actually are able to see this case, assuming the indictment comes down, see it play, outside the facts, to see exactly what this actual conspiracy would look like and this effort to steal the election would look like. i do think that that could change some hearts and minds. david? yeah, so anderson, i agree with van, i think van makes a very valid point. it is troubling that half of america can have see this as just and righteous and the other half sees this isn t just an undue righte
