How "legit" is the British "documentarian"?

Last edited Thu Jun 23, 2022, 06:30 AM - Edit history (1)

Reportedly. a British "documentarian " has documented about 11 hours of the Trump family up to January 6th. Was he hired by the Trump family to do a fluff piece or is he actual real documentarian?

I could understand if the Committee was a little skeptical of the story. Is it a true story in real time or is it a piece of propaganda?

Also, the Committee will be studying the "documentary" while they are on an extended break before their next Hearing.

They must be very careful not to interfere with the DOJ investigation.

wouldn't mention it unless they were sure of its content and why it was made. They have been very careful when mentioning anything about the investigation.

But it’s not a fluff piece until it’s edited and all the bad stuff is chopped out. The committee is getting raw footage so who knows what’s in it.

Based on what I've heard and read, it sounds real. This Committee doesn't seem to make mistakes. But Trump does.

They weren’t able to get their dirty fingerprints all over it, evidently.
