Some of the many things that surprised me:

  • They want to try all 19 at once
  • They want the trial within 6 months

This may be the most significant indictment, because the president can't pardon a state crime.

Worth noting, in Georgia, neither can the Governor. It’s a secret pardon committee who does that, and that’s ONLY after a certain period of time has been served.

Ol’ Kemp can’t bail Trump out of this one.

The only play for them at this point would be to somehow remove Willis and replace her with someone that will tank the case on purpose.

It’s a random selection of judges now. There are 19 judges, and the computer assigns the case at random now that the indictment has been handed in. Worst game of Russian roulette.

Someone still has to try the case. If they cleaned house at the Fulton da office they could have some sycophant show up to court and literally just tank the entire case.
