The Georgia indictments are broad and sweeping with multiple individuals being indited...We know Jack Smith kept his indictments closed and with a tRump primary and others are to follow with J-6 with their own trial..
So, help me see the big picture with Georgia's mega indictments and defendants...

(128,150 posts)I think that some of the 19 defendants will arrive at plea deals prior to the trial and become witnesses so that we are down to about a half-dozen other defendants besides Trump. Pity the fools that decide to take their chances and go to trial.

Trying them together helps keeps in one piece that all important context of why they are criminal

(54,330 posts)talking head chatter has been about Trump getting the trial moved from the state court in Georgia to a federal court. How can that happen that state charges would be heard in a federal court?
