Given the relationship between Willis and Wade, it can be argued that she chose to move forward in prosecution because it would benefit him. Which means indirect benefits for the other two.



So the whole theory that the case will go away revolves around Willis's entire office and Special Prosecutors being recused/dq'd?

The timing of the case is pretty important to the 2024 election, as the entire point is to try and DQ him from the race.

If this gets kicked past the election, there is a 50% shot he is a private citizen and won’t run again in 2028. At which point they have little need to push this hard.


If he wins the election, this becomes a very prolonged legal fight because a state prosecuting a sitting president, much like Paula Jones’ lawsuit against Clinton, means that it gets very complicated.

At that point, the state would have to decide if it is still worth pursuing given the extra scrutiny and the fact that Trump, as executive, can handle materials to help or hurt the case differently than the Biden administration could.
