Yesterday we told you that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis wanted the trial day to be within six months from now.

Well she pretty much stood by that and is requesting Trump’s trial begin on March 4, right in the middle of primary season:

THE HILL – Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) is requesting a March 4 start date in the trial of former President Trump and 18 co-defendants over an alleged plot to subvert the state’s 2020 election results and keep Trump in power.

Willis also proposed that their arraignments occur during the week of Sept. 5, writing that the defendants would be notified of their arraignment date at least five days in advance, according to a new court filing. She said dates would not conflict with Trump’s other legal matters.

This is just a request and the trial date will be up to the judge. But I suspect Willis will get what she wants or close to it. That just seems to be the way things are going. But it’s clear that this is an attack on Trump during election season. I suspect she coordinated with Jack Smith and that will come out in the wash at some point in the future.
