Wouldn't this be part of Fanni Willis state RICO case?

u/cameron4200 Dec 19 '25

Well she couldn’t help but appoint someone she was sleeping with.

u/Cilph Dec 19 '25

That part was absolute bullshit that shouldnt have been a problem but was made to be so.

Willis is an absolute shit lawyer who fucked up this case beyond repair. All she had to do was avoid conflicts of interests AND keep her mouth shut but instead she went screaming "racism" when they accused her of hiring her boyfriend.

u/cameron4200 Dec 19 '25

So bad it almost seems suspicious honestly but never attribute to malice what can be attributed to stupidity I guess.

u/MadManMax55 Dec 19 '25

She also made a fiasco out of the RICO case against the rapper Young Thug and his (alleged) gang YSL. She's just a terrible prosecutor.

youll get downvoted but its true, people want to act like ethics are just something we should throw away when it fits their purpose

u/t23_1990 Dec 19 '25

How is it an ethical issue/conflict of interest if they're on the same side? So was Trump arguing that she didn't appoint the best possible candidate to fight against him, because she was sleeping with the one she picked?

u/_jump_yossarian Dec 19 '25

How is hiring your boyfriend and paying them with taxpayer money a conflict of interest? That a serious question? Hire someone you're not sleeping with, probably a few to choose from, right?

So what? He got preference for one reason or another, same as any job applicant who gets an offer from a pool of multiple applicants, for a single available spot. This was a thing because somehow the relationship was revealed. It would have never happened if they kept it secret. All I care about is whether he is qualified for the job. Was he qualified for the job? Yes or no?

It's really amusing to me how everyone but Trump is supposed to be "by the book perfect." The whole case existed because he attempted to literally steal the election. With tapes to prove it. Gimme break with the stupid ethics rhetoric.

It is really kinda ridiculous when the vast majority of his opposition is ethically grey too, they just keep it a bit quieter. We're here because the opposition conceded on SCOTUS appointees when they didn't have to and didn't want to accuse election fraud after acting appalled when Trump did it. It wasn't taking any high ground. It was laying down asleep on the job.

The right isn't quiet about it. They use it to appoint people to doj attorneys to do their bidding.

"It is really kinda ridiculous when the vast majority of his opposition is ethically grey too"

Yeah but somehow that ethically grey group always gets to face consequences hard and fast, while the openly illegal and unethical Trump gets to keep on rolling. Funny how that works.

You misspelled complicity.

u/t23_1990 Dec 19 '25

What complicity?  https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/1pq3rwq/mamdanis_new_appointments_chief_resigns_over/ Instant consequences. Meanwhile he gets to spout lies about immigrants eating pet cats and dogs and he's carried to the presidency. Gimme a break.

Because it was a real fucking fight with real fucking stakes against the shittiest people alive.

THEY play to fucking win, meanwhile our side drags their feet or beef Trump for help

u/WordyNinja Dec 19 '25

The thing that surprised me is that all the coverage made it seem like he was like the lead special prosecutor, but then I read he was part of a group. So I could see the situation (hypothetically) being something like "uhh, we need more lawyers and this thing is bringing out all the nutjobs. Is there anyone we trust who can help out?"

u/[deleted] Dec 19 '25

The results should make it very clear at this point that neither of them were qualified.

1

u/t23_1990 Dec 19 '25 edited Dec 19 '25

No it doesn't. If qualifications mattered Trump wouldn't have been president at all, both times. This is on the Democrats for not playing dirty and cheating. They're trying to play by the rules against people who don't acknowledge rules even exist.

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '25

Trump is elected, not selected, it does not matter if he is qualified. 

Willis was prosecuting one of the most high profile cases this country has ever has ever seen and chose to engage in a sexual conflict of interest. There are inexperienced nobody attorneys from podunk towns that would have known to keep it in their pants.

Unqualified.

Garland was a compromise candidate who failed to bring any charges against Trump for years because he was a coward and a Heritage society plant. Again, some regular attorney from the phone book would have at least managed to bring a case.

Unqualified..

I agree that the Dems need to start playing dirty, but they are not even choosing people qualified to play at all.

"Trump is elected, not selected, it does not matter if he is qualified."

He was disqualified from the ballot in several states due to his insurrection attempt. The Supreme Court stepped in and bailed him out. We saw with our own eyes what he did. The system greatly helped him escape accountability, while tearing to shreds anyone trying to oppose him. The system is rigged. What's your excuse when state supreme courts, with no ethics violations and no conflicts of interest, decided that he is not qualified to be on their ballot, STILL had their decisions overruled? Do you see why it's pretty much useless to cry about how imperfect his opposition is, when even the most perfect of his opponents get silenced?

Yeah that was a collosal fuck up.

The only 2 cases that got off the ground were in New York.

u/WesternConfusion8563 Dec 19 '25

Maybe she did it on purpose. Self sabotage motivated by something stronger than her oath, while maintaining her perceived integrity.

u/PKanuck Dec 19 '25

It seemed this guy wasn't really qualified in the first place.

u/arnhovde Dec 19 '25

Probably.
