#1  There is a very good chance that this trial may prove to be incredibly valuable to both Wilders and his party.

As things stand, they are in third place, and the ruling party must consult with them on all major legislation. But this can be a place where a third party withers away, out of the limelight.

But with the trial, Wilders and his party have a frequent platform that is *not* in political news, and thus consistently rebutted, but in legal news. So the public get to see Wilders point of view at intervals, with no spin doctors to say otherwise.

The more unfair the trial, the better. And while Muslims seethe and scream, the ethnic Dutch simmer quietly until they explode. But when and if they do it is like Krakatoa.
