Disgraceful Political Theater in Georgia

I guess the problematic prosecutors going after President Trump think the fourth time's the charm. Last night, in the middle of the night while most Americans were asleep, the Fulton County District Attorney indicted President Trump. The entire process was political theater, not equal justice under the law. But what more can we expect, when prosecutors' sole goal is to “get Trump” and stop him from sitting in the Oval Office ever again? Let’s remember, both Jack Smith and Fani Willis had almost 3 years to charge Trump. Why wait until now? The clear answer is because President Trump is surging in the polls, not only crushing his Republican opponents by 40 points, but also defeating Joe Biden. Democrats fear they cannot beat Trump at the ballot box, so they are trying to throw him in jail on bogus, politically motivated charges. The prosecutor is unfair and biased. The process was political theater. The charges are bogus. The result will be the same.

Fani Willis is compromised. No reasonable or fair judge would think she could be impartial on this case against President Trump. And we have good evidence to believe this. A judge has already
disqualified her from part of this case because she held a fundraiser for the political opponent of the person she was investigating. Willis has made inappropriate public statements, calling this a criminal case, even though the Grand Jury has not ruled on this. She has also commented on Trump’s state of mind. While subpoenaing Lindsey Graham to testify in this investigation, she shared a cartoon mocking him. Prior to the announcement of the indictment, her campaign launched a fundraising website, attempting to raise money from the charges against President Trump. No defendant could ever expect a fair trial with a prosecutor like Fani Willis. On top of this, who can forget the Grand Jury foreperson doing media hits with CNN and MSNBC during the investigation, talking about her dream of subpoenaing Donald Trump.

The entire court process during yesterday's indictment was disgraceful political theater. Someone from inside the District Attorney’s office was leaking out the timing to the press, when the Grand Jury
vote was happening, and MSNBC even had the indictment count before President Trump’s lawyers and the American public. More stunningly, earlier in the day the Fulton County Clerk posted the indictment online, prior to the Grand Jury vote on the actual indictment. The clerk has refused to offer a satisfactory answer to this. Last night, Fani Willis also ducked this question. The indictment posted online “accidently” happened to match the indictment Willis released to the public later that evening. As Trump’s lawyers have correctly pointed out, the proposed indictment should only be in the hands of the District Attorney's office, and should not be in the possession of the clerk, or assigned a judge prior to the Grand Jury vote. Again, how can Donald Trump expect a fair process when timing leaks and indictments are posted prior to Grand Jury votes. Fani Willis is proving this is a political hatchet job, not a serious legal process.
