Victor Davis Hanson, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, predicted on Fox Business Thursday that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis will be disqualified from the case against former President Trump, calling her “outrageous” condemned the act.

Hanson appeared on “The Bottom Line” to discuss Willis on the stand during Thursday's hearing, which erupted when Willis claimed the motion against him was a lie. Fox co-host Dagen McDowell asked the senior fellow what she thought about Willis' testimony and whether she thought it would disqualify her from her case.

“Yes, that's right. I don't think you can have a chief prosecutor in one of the largest counties in the United States trying historic cases. [a] “My rival in presidential politics has flatly admitted to taking thousands of dollars in cash,” Hanson said. “She then carried around thousands of dollars in cash and returned her money to him, which she says was transferred without any written documentation or signatures and without any confirmation.”

Mr Hanson also said people who heard the testimony would question why Mr Willis would pay “cash” to his fellow lawyer and girlfriend Nathan Wade. (Related article: 'They're toast': Conservatives furious over Fani Willis hearing)

“I think people hearing this would think, 'The only reason I paid him back in cash was because I didn't want a record of his credit cards or personal checks. That would have been much easier,' and more secure. ,” Hanson said. “So why would she pay him back in cash? Her explanation is: 'She plays the race card over and over again.' It's a characteristic of black families, such as her father instructing a young black woman to have more money. It can't be washed. ”

“It was completely ridiculous. We all know why people do things in cash, and that's mainly to avoid a written record.” You're in charge of prosecuting the law and making sure legal theory is followed. He is the chief prosecutor who does this, and there must be a reason why he does it. She couldn’t explain it,” Hanson continued. “Later, when she was throwing tantrums, behaving unprofessionally, and indulging, I thought I was well beyond the judge's tolerance limits. He justified her outrageous behavior. I just kept trying to frame it and put it into context. I just think it turned out badly and people would say, 'Is this person responsible for prosecuting a leading candidate for president of the United States?'

Reports about Willis' relationship with Wade surfaced in early January after former Trump campaign official Michael Roman, who was named in Willis' indictment, filed a complaint in court. The filing details allegations about their relationship, alleging that Willis benefited financially from the relationship after he appointed Wade as special prosecutor in the case.
