The Spin
Pro-Trump narrative
Willis's hearing was embarrassment, saturated with raised voices and lies. Despite already admitting to a relationship, Willis and Wade's romantic timeline still doesn't add up — the two should immediately resign from their posts and should have no future role in upholding the integrity of America's legal system.
Anti-Trump narrative
Willis and Wade should step aside, but only because their relationship — wrong or right — must not be allowed to further undermine the chances of Trump being convicted for his crimes. The bigger picture must not be lost — the former president attempted to completely disregard America's democratic foundations, and any distractions must be removed to prevent anything similar from taking place ever again.
