On one hand, it would be delicious to watch Trump get humiliated in court. On the other hand, this seems like a nonsense motion intended only to sow chaos, as is his wont.

That’s exactly what it is. They’ve never allowed cameras in federal court before and Trump’s lawyers know it. The problem is that it’s a win-win for Trump. If they deny cameras, he gets to cry conspiracy to his braindead followers. If they DO allow them, then it’s Trump getting special treatment. This is what happens to a population of people who’s government has been systematically destroying the education system for decades.

The judge for the Rittenhouse trial said he’ll never again allow cameras in his court due to how skewed and edited the footage was when presented to the public.

Trials are incredibly long and boring so the media cuts and edits things to add drama and entertainment, but that gives a terrible impression to the public about how the trial went.

Also, Hitler gained popularity in Germany after his trial and imprisonment for leading a failed coup attempt thanks to the attention the media gave to it. This is uncomfortably similar.
