A few of Trump’s alleged co-conspirators are demanding speedy trials in the Georgia case. Why is this significant? For two reasons: first, they will undoubtedly preview some of the defenses that Trump will be featuring, including the First Amendment and the good faith belief that the election was rigged; and second, they will probably say they were acting at his direction.
Convictions in these cases will obviously help the Trump prosecution. Acquittals will damage it, possibly beyond repair. I make no predictions on the outcome.
