The weaponized Georgia election case against President Trump has finally been dismissed entirely, marking a decisive end to the politically motivated prosecution that conservatives have long denounced as lawfare.
Story Highlights
- The Georgia election interference case against Trump was dismissed in its entirety after a new prosecutor declined to pursue charges.
- Fani Willis removed from case over romantic relationship scandal with special prosecutor Nathan Wade.
- All four major criminal cases against Trump are now resolved, proving the lawfare strategy failed.
- The new prosecutor acknowledged that federal venue was more appropriate than state court in Georgia.
Political Persecution Finally Ends
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee dismissed the Georgia election interference case against President Trump on Wednesday after prosecutor Pete Skandalakis refused to pursue charges.
Skandalakis took over from disgraced DA Fani Willis, who was removed over her inappropriate romantic relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade. This dismissal represents the complete collapse of what Trump’s attorneys correctly called “political persecution” designed to damage his presidential campaign.

Fani Willis Scandal Destroys Case
Willis’s removal stemmed from her “tremendous lapse in judgment” involving a romantic relationship with Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor she handpicked to lead the case. The Georgia Court of Appeals found this created an “appearance of impropriety” that disqualified her entirely.
Multiple prosecutors declined to take over the tainted case, highlighting how Willis’s personal misconduct undermined what Democrats claimed was crucial election integrity litigation. Her actions exemplify the reckless pursuit of political vendettas over professional responsibility.
Lawfare Strategy Collapses Completely
Trump has now emerged victorious from all four criminal prosecutions launched against him in 2023. Special counsel Jack Smith dropped both federal cases after Trump’s election victory, citing Justice Department policy.
The New York hush money conviction resulted in no punishment whatsoever. This complete failure of the lawfare strategy proves what conservatives argued all along – these cases were political theater designed to interfere with the 2024 election rather than legitimate prosecutions.
Prosecutor Acknowledges Federal Jurisdiction
Skandalakis admitted in his court filing that federal prosecution would be more appropriate, stating the alleged conduct “was conceived in Washington, D.C., not the State of Georgia.” This acknowledgment undermines the entire foundation of Willis’s state-level case.
Skandalakis also cited the “complexity of legal issues” and noted that bringing the case to trial wouldn’t occur until 2029-2031, making prosecution impractical. His decision reflects proper prosecutorial discretion that Willis abandoned in favor of political grandstanding.
