Wouldn’t they just appoint another prosecutor?
Yes, yes they would, or someone else in the office will take over if Willis has to step down from either her position or from the case… Apparently, people aren’t aware of DA offices work? Maybe they need to watch more Law & Order?
Exactly what trump wants.
And yes, yes they could.
Yes, this really amounts to a big stupid distraction more than a weakness in the actual legal case against Trump. But a big stupid distraction still helps Trump, especially if it delays the case or even just makes Willis look corrupt.
He may regret that wish; depending on who they appoint. Which I imagine Willis would still have a say in.
I predict he’ll be facing a third lawsuit on this case very shortly. And lose again.
Also - HuffPo - it’s not alleged after it’s been proven in court.
… it seems like most of the Assistant District Attorneys get written out of those shows by going through some spectacular scandal and then either quitting or getting disbarred
Yes, but how long is it going to take to get a new prosecutor up to speed? A few months is all Trump needs.
I mean… do you think that no one else in the office is already up to speed that can’t take over? This is a HUGE case and I’m sure they’ve added in plenty of redundancies already, because, you know, endless death threats…

yeah, he can call immigrants vermin, but a black woman can’t say she’s black. that tracks.
Such a model of restraint and professionalism in the face of pressure.
May the pressure keep increasing.
