Trump's legal and political strategy seems to be working...for now

This week on Trump's Trials, host Scott Detrow and Domenico Montanaro are joined by NPR Justice Correspondent Carrie Johnson.

This week's focus: Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has come under scrutiny after a codefendant in Trump's Georgia election case accused her, without evidence, of having an improper relationship with attorney Nathan Wade, whom she hired to prosecute the case. Wade is currently going through a divorce and documents from that proceeding show Wade bought airline tickets for himself and Willis for flights together. Willis has yet to fully address the allegations and the judge in this case has set a hearing on the matter. In the absence of a response from Willis to the allegations, Trump and his allies have seized the moment to discredit her.

Topics include: - Georgia election interference case - Allegations of misconduct - Update on Florida classified documents case - Iowa caucuses results
