Donna Brazile, the former Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairwoman, has expressed her belief that the guilty pleas in the Trump/Georgia election interference case mean "major trouble" for the former president. As reported by The Hill, lawyers to Donald Trump, Sidney Powell and Kenneth Cheseboro entered guilty pleas on October 20th and 21st, and agreed to testify against their co-defendants, including Trump.
Speaking on ABC's This Week, Brazile noted that this judge was able to get Trump to take down one of his "threatening emails," and went on to say "there's no question that I think Mr. Trump is in major trouble." The two guilty pleas add to the list of convictions that have been secured from Trump's inner circle, with Scott Hall having agreed to a plea deal in early October.
Brazile also noted the significance of Powell's plea deal, as she was extremely close to Trump during his time in office, having been present in the Oval Office for some of the alleged strategy sessions. When asked about the potential impact of the guilty pleas, Brazile said that she believes this could lead to a domino effect, and that the testimonies of those close to Trump could have a major impact on his messaging.
Following Powell's plea deal, Trump took to social media to deny that she ever represented him; however, this was contradicted by a tweet on November 14th, 2020, in which he announced that she had been "added to our other wonderful lawyers and representatives."
Ultimately, it's clear that the guilty pleas in the Trump/Georgia election interference case could have far-reaching implications for the former president. All eyes will now be on the testimonies of Trump's former associates, as they could prove to be the deciding factor in the outcome of the case.
