Fani Willis’ testimony may blow up her prosecution of Trump.

Slate  

Thursday was an enormously consequential day for the criminal cases against Donald Trump. At one point, Merchant pointed to an expense listed on Wade’s business credit card records for a tattoo parlor on a trip that Willis and Wade took together to Belize. Willis initially had tried to quash the subpoena compelling her to testify in the trial but dramatically ran from her office to the courtroom to volunteer her testimony after Wade’s testimony ended, telling the court: “I’m gonna go.” Willis’ combustive testimony went a lot less smoothly than Wade’s, with McAfee cautioning the witness multiple times for using her time to go on lengthy filibusters criticizing the defense attorneys for their conflict-of-interest accusations and overexplaining her side of the story. Wade told me one time that the only thing a woman can do for him is make him a sandwich.” Everyone watching got to witness this post-breakup tension, though the question of when that breakup occurred proved another point of contention: In an extended colloquy with Sadow, she struggled to say when, exactly, her relationship with Wade ended, asserting that “a man” would identify the date differently from “a woman.” Related From Slate The Most Galling Thing About the Supreme Court’s Trump Ballot Arguments The district attorney’s embarkation upon strange tangents and rambling monologues is proof in itself that the optics of the situation are not good for her side. Until last month, Willis’ prosecution was moving steadily forward; the district attorney had, in fact, already secured several convictions, persuading multiple of Trump’s co-defendants to take guilty pleas rather than face trial.
