Sounds pretty dumb, right?
EDIT: Fully aware that the scale is different here, but it's a very short-sighted and dangerous precedent to set.

Actually the stupid part to me is the suggestion that a trial is what will keep Trump in the news. As if somehow he's not the biggest egomaniac, attention maniac, and general maniac alive. As if Trump won't be tweeting borderline seditious things to draw attention to himself for the remainder of his life. And as if the media isn't going to be looking to pump up everything Trump as the boredom of the Biden Administration pushes them to pump up ratings somehow.
No, it'll be a trial that makes sure Trump stays in the news. Without a trial he'll just fade away. Ok....
