Updates from Georgia that “pissed off” the ladies of “The View” signaled a positive outlook for former President Donald Trump regarding the “appearance of impropriety.”

Since the lawfare against the former president began, though serious, the federal indictments have often been cast in a different light than the Fulton County, Georgia RICO case because any potential charges would be untouchable by a White House pardon.
So it was no wonder that the Trump Derangement Syndrome suffering co-hosts of ABC’s “The View” were incensed that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was coming under scrutiny for an alleged relationship with her appointed special prosecutor, Nathan Wade.
“I think the issue is that there is an appearance of impropriety if you are sleeping, as the district attorney — if you are allegedly, she’s not admitting to that — if you are sleeping with your special counsel that you appointed to a job and that person makes money doing that, right?” said Sunny Hostin after Joy Behar had prompted the conversation with a clip of Willis playing the victim.
“So, that’s a problem,” she added.
Friday, the Georgia Senate had voted 30-19 in favor of launching a special committee to investigate whether there were any conflicts of interest in Willis hiring Wade.
Ana Navarro pointed out, “If you are sleeping with a prosecutor and paying him $650,000…it doesn’t matter if you’re black, white, green, purple, brown. It is wrong and it is unethical and I think it’s against the rules of professional regulation.”

At the time of this post, neither Willis nor Wade have commented on the alleged relationship, and Alyssa Farah Griffin vented a separate frustration from the possibility of Trump seeking to have the case dismissed.
“I just personally am pissed off about this. This is the case of her lifetime. It’s a sweeping RICO case. It’s a tough one. I think she actually has the — what she needs to prove this. But one of my best friends, Cassidy Hutchinson, spent months in Atlanta protected by U.S. marshals to testify for this case and now it may all fall apart because these allegations of impropriety,” she griped.
Amid squawking over the potential of, at the very least, a delay that could benefit Trump, Navarro harkened back to her previous racial commentary and said, “I’m very pissed off too because when you are a woman of color in such a high-profile position, you know that the scrutiny that’s going to befall you is greater than on anybody else and she needed to have kept her house clean.”
“I will say they’re still allegations, but I feel that way,” added Hostin.
Of course, as all of the co-hosts remained on their best behavior when discussing the allegations against Willis, the same treatment was not afforded Trump as Behar asserted, “You know, this is the Trump playbook. Postpone everything. Postpone the border. Postpone the economy. Postpone everything. And postpone this case. He figures, ‘Oh maybe I’ll be in office and I won’t have to go to jail.’ That is his whole MO.”
