After years of false charges, and now coming to an end of these failed attempts by the left, including many in the GOP, did the left really think they had a chance?

QuoteThe ruling comes as McAfee is also considering a bid by defendants to have Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis removed from the case. Defendants have alleged that Willis has a conflict of interest because of her romantic relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade.

Did they not even consider the fact that Trump would have the best lawyers and investigators in the country at his disposal?
Seriously, the left appointed these people in the judiciary, people who shouldn't even be allowed to manage an ant farm.
The very people appointed because they lack any sentiment of morality or sense of Justice, and they didn't think they'd start screwing up the minute they took office?

IMO...and it's not a good one, this ruling to dismiss these charges against Trump might be an indication that he will keep Fani Willis and the Fulton DA's office intact and on the Trump case, instead of disqualifying them when this Judge rules Friday the 15th.

I hope I'm way off base.

QuoteA Georgia judge is expected to decide this week whether to boot Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) and her office from former President Trump's election interference case because of her romance with a subordinate.

I can not see how she stays, but like you brought up, why kick off some of the cases if her head is going to roll?

QuoteIf McAfee rules that Willis can continue prosecuting the case, he could grant the defense a certificate to appeal immediately or make them wait for a post-trial conviction to appeal, according to Anthony Michael Kreis, a law professor at Georgia State University who has closely followed the case.   

QuoteFulton County prosecutors want the judge to consider whether an actual conflict of interest arose from Willis and Wade's relationship, while defense attorneys say the appearance of a conflict is enough to kick them off the case. 

"The entire outcome is pretty much contingent on what standard of disqualification he applies," Kreis said. 

"[The defense] has come up quite short of proving or demonstrating that Fani Willis received a considerable kickback, or anything of that nature, from the prosecution, so if the standard is an actual conflict, I think they have a pretty uphill battle," he continued. "But if the standard is an appearance of a conflict or an appearance of impropriety — I think it's possible that the defense has muddied things up enough." 

What I read into that, it might be ok to have a criminal as the prosecutor as long as a "specific" crime was not committed. Integrity means nothing.

Exactly...if she goes so the whole Fulton County DA's office which would put the case in another's county's DA

I read somewhere 6 charges out of 13 were dismissed, either way dismissal of ANY of the charges has got to jeopardize the remaining ones. I think the Judge is waiting to see what happens With Fani (Prosecution, dismissal or suspension) before addressing the rest of the case. Either way he knows Trump can appeal and likely win, so why continue the farce

I'll wait to see, after all, this is just the beginning.
We win daily on every level, the left is in full on defense mode.
