I wouldn’t take a “not guilty” plea as evidence of much.
Pleading “not guilty” is the only way to get in front of a jury, which is probably the best chance he has at this point — both in terms of staying out of jail and in terms of boosting his message.
A trial will inevitably become a media circus, and a media circus is great if your goal is bringing attention to your particular ideology.
Hopefully it’s televised like the O.J. Simpson trial
And then he gets off scot free because the prosecutor keeps calling him Mario.
