Trump’s former personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, the man whose hair dye famously dripped down his face like Tammy Faye Bakker’s mascara during an infamous ABC interview, has also been subpoenaed. Giuliani has repeatedly accused Fulton County of voter fraud despite findings that disprove the claims.
Willis told NBC News she wasn’t ruling out subpoenaing Trump and his family.
“Anything’s possible,” she said. “We’ll just have to see where the investigation leads us.”
Willis opened the criminal probe into Trump’s call made to Raffensperger on Jan. 2, 2021, just days before Congress was set to meet to certify Joe Biden had won the Electoral College vote. On the call, Trump infamously asked the secretary of state to “find” him “11,780 votes.”
As for Graham’s claims that Willis is simply playing politics?
“What do I have to gain from these politics? ... I think that people thought that we came into this as some kind of game,” Willis told NBC. “This is not a game at all. What I am doing is very serious. It’s very important work. And we’re going to do our due diligence and making sure that we look at all aspects of the case.”
Willis’ father is a former Black Panther turned trial attorney, Yahoo News reports, and she is heavily relying on the advice of John Floyd, a skilled attorney with expertise in racketeering law. She has expressed a great deal of confidence in the direction of the investigation but admits she will face considerable roadblocks in her subpoenas.
“That’s nothing for prosecutors,” she told Yahoo News. “Nobody ever wants to come to our party.”
