Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is the last Democrat prosecutor with lawfare outstanding against Donald Trump.
That may not be the case for long.
And the Supreme Court is about to hand Fani Willis one final defeat.
Fani Willis 2020 election witch hunt in limbo
Fani Willis indicted Donald Trump in a preposterous RICO case where Willis’ charges essentially boiled down to the fact that she believed it was criminal for a Republican to challenge the results of an election and ask for a recount.
Willis’ case first got thrown into limbo over a motion to disqualify her and her office from the case due to conflict of interest allegations stemming from Willis putting her lover Nathan Wade on the prosecution’s payroll.
The Georgia State Supreme Court had scheduled oral arguments for December 5 in the appeal of Judge Scott McAfee’s decision to deny the disqualification motion.
But on November 18, the Court canceled those oral arguments.
The Court can still issue a ruling in the case without oral arguments.
And lawyers close to the Willis investigation suggest the inevitable will eventually occur and the Court will throw out Willis’ case simply because the sitting President can’t function in office with a pending criminal trial at the state level – and one that is likely to eventually get ruled unconstitutional by the United States Supreme Court to boot – hanging over his head.
“Fani doesn’t see how she’s headed for a brick wall, she’s going full tilt with vengeance and emotions,” a lawyer close to the investigation told The New York Post.
Willis was the one who created this mess by bringing someone she carried on a romantic affair with on the taxpayer dime.
“She’s still so full of herself and hasn’t learned her lesson yet. She doesn’t realize she is her own demise and she’s the reason everything’s falling apart,” the source also relayed.
There is no legal or Constitutional basis for this case to continue on.
Many expect it to just simply go away.
Case unlikely to be resumed after Trump is out of office
“I would be shocked if it wasn’t (dismissed) but Fani has an ego bigger than the entire state so who knows,” the source with knowledge of the investigation explained to the Post.
“The optics on all of this are just not good for Fani,” Dwight Thomas, an Atlanta-based criminal defense attorney, told the Post. “I don’t think the Trump trial will ever happen, even if she tries to get it postponed to 2029.”
The idea that the Court will let Willis’ dubious case hang in limbo for the next four years and let Willis proceed in 2029 when Trump is 82 years old – and when the conduct in question will have long fallen outside the statute of limitations – is ridiculous.
All of these cases were exercises in political meddling.
Willis made Trump take a mugshot thinking the photo would humiliate Trump and show up in every Democrat campaign commercial.
Instead, the picture turned into a defiant rallying cry that spiked Trump’s poll numbers and fundraising.
The lawfare that partisan prosecutors like Willis waged against Donald Trump should never have been allowed to proceed.
And the Court is likely to take Trump’s election as an excuse to make it go away.
