    This is very very bad for Trump because Powell is also a defendant in Jack Smith’s federal case being tried under Judge Chutkan.

    Powell obviously knows that her guilty plea in Georgia can and will be used by Smith in the federal case, so what it basically says is that she’s going to be a cooperating witness (she really has no choice) for Smith as well.

    Powell was there at the infamous December 18th meeting wherein things like shutting down all voting and declaring martial law were allegedly discussed. This in turn means that she can provide convincing and potentially damning evidence as to Trump’s knowledge of and intent with regard to how the election had actually played out, and specifically with regard to his desire to overturn it.

    There’s a lot more to be said about this, but I have to go make dinner.

    When he finally ends up in prison where he belongs, he’ll claim he was never Donald Trump.

    What’s the strategy in that? Claiming she was never his attorney forfeits what shreds of privilege might be left of their communications and is also one less person he can blame “advice of counsel” on.

    This seems easy to prove ether way. I would assume some paperwork exists with her listed as his legal representative.

    man he’s got such a distinct firehose of words constantly incriminating himself but also trying to cover up incriminating himself. ‘I dont even know this girl, she’s a criminal that’s never worked for me, but her only crime is saying what I’ve been saying this entire time, the election was stolen and I support everything she does, amazing woman, I have nothing to do with her’

    Nice try fuck face. You’re literally on TV talking to, about, and with her. Fuck, this guy is insufferable. I’d go to church everyday and pray to whatever God would end his existence* so we don’t have to listen to this shit anyone.

    *not condoning any violence against another human being by a human being; only divine intervention which seems to be a thing people believe in and how it can happen by magic sky daddies

    Ah, so what you’re saying is that attorney-client privilege doesn’t apply to your communications with her, since she was never your attorney, right?
