Former Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., and host of "The Doug Collins Podcast," spoke to Bob Brooks and Katrina Szish on "American Agenda" Thursday, saying the charges against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis will be "one of the more pivotal moments in this case going forward either in its current form or not going forward with this district attorney's office."
Last week, Mike Roman, one of former President's Trump's co-defendants in the Fulton County case, filed his own legal motion accusing Willis and prosecutor Nathan Wade of not only have a romantic relationship, but also a litany of other ethics violations.
These include using funds paid by the county to take luxury vacations, having Wade appointed to the Trump case despite having little prosecutorial experience, and noting Wade met with White House counsel twice in August, raising concerns of a coordinated President Joe Biden attack against his chief political rival.
Collins emphasized the rarity of these kinds of charges. "It takes a lot for an attorney to file a motion to have a hearing in which you have made not just salacious allegations, but very open allegations against the DA."
He added: "This is gonna be probably one of the most watched hearings ever in Fulton County. This will be one of the key moments that we see what this case is built on and a lot of it is coming from a DA's office that seemingly has self-destructed."
Willis indicted Trump in August on 13 charges. In total, Trump faces a maximum of 76.5 years in state prison if convicted.
