Fani Willis’ case against Donald Trump is hanging on by a thread.
It’s reaching a breaking point.
And Trey Gowdy dropped a stunner about Fani Willis’ fate.
Former South Carolina Congressman Trey Gowdy reacted to the bombshell news that Willis met with Kamala Harris at the White House before indicting Donald Trump.
Willis is already facing a hearing to disqualify her from her RICO indictment against Donald Trump and 18 other co-defendants over her conflict of interest.
Gowdy discussed the fact that Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade may face perjury charges or even disbarment over the defense presenting witness testimony and cell phone records that showed the two lied on the witness stand when they testified their affair didn’t begin until after Willis hired Wade as special prosecutor.
Defense lawyers argued Willis brought her unqualified lover on to the case and then stretched the investigation out for two years so Wade could bill Fulton County $654,000 in legal fees and then use the money to pay for himself and Willis to go on luxury vacations.
“I just want people to understand that this is not the way 99.9% of all prosecutors in this country conduct themselves on either side of the aisle. These are politicians masquerading as prosecutors, and it will be the undoing of our justice system. Now, whether or not a judge finds that this is sufficient to disqualify the prosecutors, I’m not sure that helps Trump,” Gowdy began.
Gowdy said even if the judge kicked Wade and Willis off the case another prosecutor untainted by allegations of lying on the witness stand and corruption could take up the case.
“I’d rather have two people who don’t know what they’re doing prosecute me than go find two people who actually do. The larger point is weaponizing our justice system, whether it’s the federal or the state level. It will be our undoing. What I’d like to know more about are these meetings between Fani Willis or Nathan Wade and the White House, because that level of political coordination should disgust people of all political ideations,” Gowdy added.
Gowdy continued on, saying the real issue in this case is the weaponization of the justice system where partisan prosecutors use the courts to meddle in elections and settle political scores.
“Fani Willis or Nathan Wade may very well have issues with respect to perjury. They may have issues with candor before the court. They may have Georgia bar issues. The question for President Trump and other co-defendants is whether or not the indictment is legally sufficient. And even if it is not, they’re just going to go get another grand jury to indict him. Again, we got to fix the underlying pathology, which is a politicization of our justice system,” Gowdy concluded.
Gowdy may be wrong on only one point.
If Judge Scott McAfee disqualifies Willis, it likely means this case never goes to trial.
A judge also disqualified Willis from prosecuting Lt. Governor Burt Jones in the so-called “fake electors” plot because Willis attended a fundraiser for Jones’ opponent.
That disqualification ruling came down in July of 2022.
Twenty months later, the state of Georgia still hasn’t picked a new prosecutor to take up this case.
Disqualifying Willis would likely have the same effect on the Trump case as Georgia could use Willis getting the boot to quietly make an indictment completely tainted by political bias and prosecutorial misconduct go away.
