An Atlanta prosecutor on Thursday asked a judge to begin the Georgia election interference trial for Donald Trump and 18 other defendants on Oct. 23.
The scheduling request by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis came a day after one of Trump’s co-defendants, attorney Kenneth Chesebro, filed a demand for a speedy trial in the county Superior Court.
Willis directly cited Chesebro’s demand in her filing Thursday.
Delaying these trails push us ever closer to a constitutional crisis and “civil war.” I say civil war that way because red states are delusional if they think they could ever meaningfully rise up again. It was possible 200 years ago because information traveled slowly. In today’s world red states would lose all major cities and military bases instantly.
Things are definitely different. We aren’t in some era where war is like twenty guys shooting muskets at each other.
Any state trying to break off would find their guard refusing to go along with it and the leaders of the state arrested. If the governor himself can be personally arrested nothing is going to happen.
