According to a Rasmussen poll, 50% of likely United States voters believes its likely Fulton County, Georgia, District Attorney Fani Willis engaged in an “improper relationship” with the attorney she hired to serve as a special prosecutor in the Trump case, which includes 33% who believe it’s very likely. 30% don’t believe such a relationship is likely, which includes 12% who indicated it’s unlikely. An additional 20% are unsure.
One of Trump’s co-defendants in the Fulton County case recently filed a motion asserting that Nathan Wade, Willis’s head prosecutor in the Trump case, had an “improper” relationship with Willis. Trump criticized the prosecutor: “The district attorney is totally compromised. The case has to be dropped.” 49% of voters agree with Trump’s quote, which includes 35% who strongly agree. 41% don’t believe Willis is “totally compromised,” which includes 31% who strongly disagree with the Trump quote. Another 10% are unsure.
Seventy-seven percent (77%) of voters have followed recent news about Willis, including 41% who say they’ve followed news about the Fulton County district attorney Very Closely. Democrats (47%) are more likely than Republicans (39%) or voters not affiliated with either major party (36%) to say they have Very Closely followed recent news about Willis.
Voters who say they’ve Very Closely followed recent news about Willis are most likely to believe she had an “improper relationship” with the special prosecutor in the Trump case, and also most likely to agree that Willis is “totally compromised.”
38% of all likely voters signaled that the recent criminal prosecutions of Donald Trump make them less likely to back him, whereas 33% say the prosecutions make them more likely to back Trump in the 2024 presidential election. 27% said recent criminal prosecutions against Trump do not make much of a difference in whether they will back him.
By contrast, 60% of Democrat voters indicated that the prosecutions against Trump make them less likely to back him. 50% of Republican voters said they’re more likely to support Trump due to the recent criminal prosecutions. Among independent voters, 32% are more likely to back Trump, 31% are less likely to back him, and 35% signaled that the prosecution of Trump doesn’t make much of a difference.
65% of Republican voters suspect that it’s at least somewhat likely that Willis had an “improper relationship” with the attorney she hired to serve as special prosecutor in the Trump case, in addition to 36% of Democrat voters and 50% of independent voters.
69% of Republican voters, 29% of Democrat voters, and 52% of independent voters at least somewhat agree that Willis “is totally compromised” and the Fulton County prosecution against Trump “has to be dropped.”
As for race, 51% of white voters, 44% of black voters, and 48% of other non-black minorities consider it at least somewhat likely that the allegations against Willis of an “improper relationship” are true.
There is clearly a large degree of corruption taking place in Fulton County. This is where things are going in the increasingly dysfunctional US, where the rule of law, merit, and public integrity are being cast aside in favor of corruption, nepotism, and outright despotism.
The very US we grew up to admire will soon be cast aside for a corrupt political order that will work overtime to displace the Historic American Nation.
