Former President Donald Trump's lawyers have filed an appeal to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from his election subversion case, alleging that her public remarks demonstrate racial bias against Trump and his co-defendants. The lawyers claim that Willis's January speech at a Black church intentionally injected false allegations of racism into the proceedings, which they argue could bias potential jurors. They assert that her comments were calculated to deflect scrutiny from her own conduct and portray Trump as a racist. The case, which has been delayed pending the appeal, highlights the contentious nature of the legal battles surrounding Trump as he campaigns for the presidency. Trump’s legal team emphasizes that Willis's remarks violate the presumption of innocence and undermine the integrity of the trial, while prosecutors argue she was responding to political criticism without naming Trump or his associates. The Georgia Court of Appeals is set to hear the matter in December, with significant implications for the ongoing case.
