Doesn't help to fake a win that didn't happen. The article this morning from the Post was cited in another thread where it received no attention from anti Trumpers other than me, possibly because it doesn't say what they like to hear.
Giving it a thread of its own.
Is Willis saved on the narrow ground she wasn't kicked off the case? I doubt it, not when she was humiliated and told in so many words she is stinking it up.
This wasn't at all a trumping of Trumpers, so forget that bullshit.

Donald Trump’s allies have failed in their effort to get Fulton County, Ga., District Attorney Fani T. Willis removed from prosecuting her election subversion case against Trump and others.
But amid their concerted campaign to target prosecutors, they have succeeded in damaging her in a way that could reverberate — with a very significant assist from Willis herself.
"And to some legal experts, the judge’s decision raises significant questions about the wisdom of Willis pressing forward, even though she can.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee ruled Friday that either Willis (D) and her office or special prosecutor Nathan Wade must leave the case. The dispute centered on a previously undisclosed romantic relationship between Willis and Wade, whom she appointed in late 2021, and whether Willis improperly benefited from it...

“For the good of the case, given that ethics issues will abound now as to Willis, she should voluntarily recuse herself from the case and allow another prosecutor to oversee” it, Andrew Weissmann, the former lead prosecutor in special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation into ties between then-President Trump and Russia, said on X.
Georgia State University law professor Clark Cunningham, who previously urged Willis to step aside, said the ruling showed why.
He said the matter raised “a risk of reversal of an eventual guilty verdict, especially if the court of appeals disagrees with McAfee.”
One potential avenue for defendants is pointing to Willis’s speech potentially prejudicing jurors. McAfee noted there wasn’t much case law upon which to base a decision, which could invite an appeals court to weigh in.
In the near term, the ruling probably means more delays, which would play into Trump’s hands with the election looming and uncertainty about whether he’ll face trial before Election Day in at least three of his four criminal cases. (The fourth is scheduled to begin later this month, but the prosecutor on Thursday opened the door to a delay.)"
