Trump rails against Fani Willis after she admits relationship with prosecutor
The Hill ^ | 02/02/24 2:54 PM ET | BY LAUREN IRWIN

Posted on 02/02/2024 7:52:56 PM PST by RandFan

Former President Trump criticized Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis after she publicly admitted to having an affair with the top prosecutor on Trump’s criminal case in Georgia.

“Fani Willis, the D.A. of Fulton County, just admitted to having a sexual relationship with the prosecutor she, in consultation with the White House and DOJ, appointed to “GET PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP,” he posted.

“By going after the most high level person, and the Republican Nominee, she was able to get her “lover” much more money, almost a Million Dollars, than she would be able to get for the prosecution of any other person or individual,” Trump’s post continued. “THAT MEANS THAT THIS SCAM IS TOTALLY DISCREDITED & OVER!”

In a court filing Friday, Willis acknowledged she developed a “personal relationship” with special prosecutor Nathan Wade but said it was no reason for her to step aside on the case.

Willis was accused by Trump co-defendant Michael Roman last month of having a romantic affair with Wade. Roman claimed the relationship made the entire indictment “fatally defective.”

The morality of this relationship aside, it is totally unprofessional for a boss to be in a sexual relationship with a subordinate.

That man depends on that woman for his million dollar paycheck. He is under tremendous pressure to please her at all times.

Totally unethical. Of course, she tried and failed to keep his duties a secret. The courts will have to do an intervention because she has no clue about what it means to be a professional.

I never saw any of the series Bull until tonight. Two jurors were secretly lovers, one who said they never knew the suspect but actually had and there were lots of smarmy, skanky law enforcement and jury pool members and lawyers.

Not the kind of show I should see. I never watched it because of that old Gene Hackman movie trailer for the Runaway Jury about manipulating juries to get guilty criminals off.
“shady jury consultant Rankin Fitch (Gene Hackman), who uses illegal means to stack the jury with people sympathetic to the defense.” Skipped the movie. Would have triggered me.

Now the totally biased NY City dwellers on the bench and in the jury box against Trump and his associates make the state of the nation’s citizens look even worse.

Sexual relationship aside, the real issue is the meetings they both had with White House staffers ahead of and after Trump getting charged. It shows coordination between the local DA and the white house to take out a political opponent, but nobody is talking about it.

Good chance this is not going to end the way Trump would like.

A phone call with Ukraine investigating possible high level corruption based on Biden’s own claim that he blackmailed a foreign government got Trump impeached for “interfering in an election” against a person who wasn’t even a declared candidate. But the WH using prosecutors all over the country to target an active candidate is A-OK.

Bill Maher is right. The Democrats are making Trump look like a martyr. They are playing fast and loose and very sloppy

The prosecutor/boyfriend who Fani hired at an exorbitant rate claims that when he and Fani went on expensive vacations, she paid half. It would be interesting to find receipts and proof that Fani paid out of her own money. Otherwise that prosecutor is a certified liar. Both he and Fani should be stripped of their law licenses for stealing government funds.

Its becoming increasingly obvious that Trump is being persecuted by corrupt lowlifes at the county, state and federal levels. Justice requires a severe reckoning.

One of the issues that many white women have against Trump is that they claim he is immoral.

They should pay a bit more attention to the demonrats

“Trump’s upset she chose to have an affair with someone besides him.”

This is the stupidest post I’ve ever seen here.

FANNY has a BA from Howard University and a JD from Emory University.

As dumb as Fani has demonstrated in recent weeks/months she is, one wonders what part or how much affirmative action played in her education.

I can’t keep up with what’s been going down
I think my heart must just be slowing down
Among the human beings, in their designer jeans
Am I the only one who hears the screams?
And the strangled cries of lawyers in love

God sends his spaceships to America, the beautiful
They land at six o’clock and there we are, the dutiful
Eating from TV trays, tuned into Happy Days
Waiting for world war three while Jesus slaves
To the mating calls of lawyers in love
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
(Ah-oh), ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh

Last night I watched the news from Washington, the Capitol
The Russians escaped while we weren’t watching them
Like Russians will
Now we’ve got all this room, we’ve even got the moon
And I hear the U.S.S.R will be open soon
As vacation land for lawyers in love
Lawyers in love

Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
(Ah-oh), ooh-sha-la-la-ooh
Ooh, sha lala ooo ooh
Lawyers in love

-Jackson Browne

If she was a Republican, RATS would be crying sexual harassment on her part. A powerful Republican woman hiring a married, male prosecutor, then entering into a sexual affair with him. They’d be screaming bloody murder for her impeachment/resignation. RATS are the biggest hypocrites.

It was Willis professional opinion that Trump should be
brought up on charges. Now that her judgement has been
outed for being as flawed and criminal as it is, it’s time
to declare a mistrial. There’s no way this case should
go forward, and the fact that her prosecutor met with
the White House twice over this case, should render it
so tainted there should be no question that it would be
shut down.

What does this matter for the persecution of Trump? The office affair is not relevant. Now, for Fulton County, yes, it is corruption and all.
