Opening Argument
The prosecution argues that the recent trend of celebrities entering politics is not merely a coincidence but a calculated distraction orchestrated to divert attention from the ongoing investigations into Trump's actions.

Closing Argument
In this fictional case, the prosecution concludes that the rise of celebrity politicians is a dangerous distraction from the real issues surrounding Trump.
