After an abysmal testimony on the stand, even writer for the Atlantic Richard W. Painter wants Fulton County DA Fani Willis to “step aside.”
Of course, Painter says that Trump and his co-defendants haven’t proven anything, but he still believes she should recuse herself.
Painter goes well out of his way to state that the standards of disqualification haven’t been met but still wants her gone.
He believes it’s in the “best interest” of the public.
He thinks there is a case for ethics violations and that’s why she should step down.
Judge McAfee should get back to the case. A criminal case should not be confused with an investigation of alleged ethics violations in the prosecutor’s office that have nothing to do with the merits of the case. Two separate proceedings.

Or maybe it’s a little simpler than that.
After watching Fani on the stand, they were petrified she’d screw up the case. Just watch the clip below…
FANI WILLIS: “Where’s Belize? What continent? I’m not being funny. I don’t know. I’ve been to Belize with him. I’ve been to The Bahamas with him. I’ve been to Aruba with him. Don’t embarrass me. I’m not sure what continents those are on.” pic.twitter.com/Cs1sGFT5je

That’s the person who’s going to try and prosecute Trump, and when the left saw that, I bet jaws dropped.
At one point during the hearing, she seems to elude to committing campaign finance violations.
She said she took out large amounts of money from her first campaign and “kept that.”
Does she know what she admitted here?

The clip above may be one of the reasons Painter wants the prosecutor to step down.
After Fani’s time on the stand, one would imagine an ethics investigation is forthcoming.
But as for Fani, she isn’t going anywhere and age another little sermon while accepting an award from the Atlanta Berean Church.
“The scripture they keep sending me is ‘No weapon formed against you shall prosper’…They did not say the weapons will not form, and that’s the part I didn’t hear until recently,” Willis said.
Willis was in attendance and appeared to receive the “Balck History Achievement Award.
The church presented Willis with a “Black History Achievement Award,” SDA founder Ellen G. White’s “Conflict Of The Ages” book series, and more.
