When prosecutors get lower level perps to plead and exchange testimony in order to get a lighter sentence they ALWAYS plead to the worst offense. In this case that would be the felony RICO charge.  Such was not the case here with Powell pleading to lesser charges and getting probation for offenses that didn't even involve Trump.  You can't have a witness testifying against Trump for the felony RICO charge when said witness/perp was basically absolved of the charge via the plea deal. Game. Set. Match.

In other words, because I know logic is not a part of your vocabulary, Fat Fani should have gotten Powell to plead to the RICO charge so she could testify that Trump was part of the conspiracy.  She didn't do that and you want to know why? Because she knows that even if she gets a conviction with a Fulton County jury, which is close to 100% likely, she knows Trump will appeal and win because expressing your belief is still a 1st Amendment right, even if it is wrong.  As an example, Goofy had the right to express his opinion that Trump was in bed with the Russians and colluded to beat Shrillery in 2016.  What we now know is that it was Hillary using the Russians to advance a lie and Goofy fell for it.  Does he deserve to be included in a RICO conspiracy with the thousands of others that believed this lie?  No, he is just stupid, gullible, naive and suffers from TDS.
