(3,453 posts)of impropriety is an issue. And it is. She should have known better. As bright as she is, she had a blind spot when it came to what it would look like if she didn't say anything up front about the relationship.
Yes, it was private. But privacy between two people trying the case does not make for an appearance of propriety. How she could not have known that someone so evil as Trump would bring it up is beyond me. She is lucky to have that ethical judge and not Judge Cannon.

(2,857 posts)And that's what Judge Empty Suit just rewarded. He's not "ethical" - he's rewarding a wrongheaded smear campaign, based on an irrelevancy. Fuck him.

(7,452 posts)She paid because, as Wonder Why said, she didn't think that Donny's evil would reach her. Donny is saturated with evil. He is consumed by it. Fani didn't see it coming. Her mistake. She took the hit. I expect that, from this point forward, she will be focused like never before. She'll make Donny feel the pain, and Donny will end up wishing he should have kept his mouth shut.

(2,586 posts)How does any impression or even appearance of impropriety impact on prosecuting this case? I dont see the relevance or reason for it to matter one whit.

(3,453 posts)judge, a SCOTUS judge, or a media member, your or my "how" counts for nothing. It's only those I mentioned that can affect the final outcome.
It's not her supporters like you and I that will have our opinion of her change.

(22,350 posts)excellent in her job. I can't understand why they think that they can interfere w/ a prosecutor's job. Their job is, after all, when someone commits a crime, to gather the evidence, prosecute them in a trial, and if successful, sentence them. That is going after justice after all.

Mr.Bill
(24,438 posts)He is not acting like an innocent person. That is definitely a good way to turn a jury against you.
This needs repeating over and over: If he were innocent he would want to get this over with instead of continually finding ways to delay... delay... delay

(111,573 posts)that would have constituted an ethics violation.
They were hoping that intense slut shaming would get her to burst into tears and quit her job.
They miscalculated badly. I hope it costs them. Even a relative slap on the wrist of 6 months in a GA state pen will go a long way toward breaking him to the point he starts making a lot of obvious mistakes.

I have to say I am so very proud of our Democratic Women. We are blessed to have so many of them fighting for us as Democrats and for all the people. Respect.

muriel_volestrangler
(101,475 posts)No, this was not "all they've done" - they've delayed the trial by 2 months while this section of farce played out, and they've got the resignation of her deputy, which will slow things down more, as the replacement comes up to speed.
I mean, this isn't "half-glass full" stuff, it's "I love getting half a glass of foam rather than beer, it's more refreshing!!!".
sheshe2
(84,216 posts)If you have read any of his post, he is pretty much spot on and knowledgeable. He was having some fun tonight as you can see from the stilettos gif.
Of course she is angry, we all are at the delay. I am pretty sure she prepared for this and will be moving forward on this without delay. My guess is she already planned for a replacement for Wade and he/she is up to speed.
My humble opinion as an anonymous poster on the internet.

Trump didn't get the victory he wanted... but it came awfully close.
muriel_volestrangler
(101,475 posts)but prosecutors need to be methodical and persuasive, not angry. I think Willis will keep any anger she has out of the case.

...while Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is allowed to keep his seat, despite the "appearance of impropriety" in accepting possibly millions in gifts from billionaires, without recusing himself.
Isn't it a "lapse of judgement" for Thomas to opine on January 6th cases, while his own wife attempted to overturn the 2020 election?
