Symone Sanders-Townsend, a host on MSNBC, vehemently criticized the Trump team and former president’s co-defendants following a significant ruling by Georgia Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee.
The judge’s decision on Friday allowed Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to proceed with her far-reaching RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act) and election subversion case against them.
During a segment on “Morning Joe,” host Joe Scarborough underscored the gravity of the ruling, asserting that Donald Trump’s actions amounted to an attempt to undermine American democracy itself.

Sanders-Townsend echoed Scarborough’s sentiments, condemning the Trump team’s efforts to manipulate the election results. She emphasized that their actions amounted to an attempt to steal the election, without any ambiguity.
“There was a case, and there is a case in Georgia because they tried to steal an election,” Sanders-Townsend declared emphatically. She criticized their subsequent attempts to divert attention from the case by engaging in sensationalist gossip, which garnered widespread attention but failed to detract from the serious allegations at hand.

Referring to the judge’s ruling that the allegations did not warrant disqualification, Sanders-Townsend suggested that the Trump team had underestimated Fani Willis and the resilience of the legal system.
Despite their attempts to undermine her credibility and silence her, Willis persisted, and the case against election meddling in Georgia remained active.
Sanders-Townsend concluded by emphasizing the significance of the ongoing legal proceedings, highlighting that the Georgia election meddling case stood out as the only instance where someone had pleaded guilty. This underscored the importance of holding those responsible accountable for their actions.
