Ground Zero for Exhaustion over Trump Legal Drama

Georgia has become ground zero for exhaustion over the legal drama surrounding former President Donald Trump, as another indictment could be looming. Atlanta-area prosecutors are set to present the results of their investigation into election interference by Trump and his allies to a grand jury. Two witnesses, including the former lieutenant governor of Georgia and an independent journalist, have already received subpoenas to testify before the grand jury. A state-level indictment in Georgia would follow a federal indictment related to Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election. If convicted of state crimes in Georgia, Trump would not be able to pardon himself if re-elected president. Furthermore, the Georgia indictment could potentially name multiple people involved in the effort to help Trump overturn his election loss in the state. The Fulton County district attorney, Fani Willis, who has been investigating the case for two-and-a-half years, is expected to present her findings to a grand jury soon. Georgia native Willis is known for her tenacity and success as a prosecutor, and this potential indictment would add to the existing legal challenges the former president is facing.
