Yeah. While I absolutely have a bias and want to see this fucker convicted, I feel like no matter what, it's going to have at least one "Where were you when...." moment.

Almost every generation has a couple. Where were you when JFK was shot? When the Challenger exploded? During 9/11? When Columbia burned up?

I mean, obviously, reading the verdict is going to be there, but I feel like there's going to be some real courtroom horseshit / ooohhhh shiiit moments too.

Wouldn’t it be grand if we could end it on a high note, and stop thinking “I’m living through history” every 1-3 years?

Oh, to know boredom.

I was alive for the Columbia explosion, 9/11, the Challenger explosion, and Reagan's attempted assassination. I saw them all as highlight reels on TV hours after the facts. I saw OJ's glove escapade on the evening news. I expect there to be a Trump trial moment like that, but I don't need to see it live, and I definitely don't need to sit through hour after hour of courtroom procedure waiting to see that one moment.

I'm glad the trial will be recorded for posterity. That seems like the best way to answer claims of shenanigans in any trial. Actually watching the trial, all the way through, seems a little too much like watching Nascar hoping to see a big crash.

NASCAR is not just about watching cars going around in a circle waiting for a crash.

It's "a day at the beach" for those who don't have an ocean nearby. Tailgate parties and beautiful people dressed for the occasion. A reason to relax and enjoy.
