Former President Donald Trump has replaced his top Georgia lawyer ahead of his surrender Thursday evening, sources tell CNN.

Drew Findling, the lawyer who has led Trump’s defense in Georgia, is being replaced by Steven Sadow, an Atlanta-based attorney whose website profile describes him as a “special counsel for white collar and high-profile defense.”

    The Georgia case was never going to trial before the election with 19 or so defendants.

      Hopefully doesn’t need to, as long as it ties up Trump’s resources and Trump himself it will also hopefully kneecap any kind of campaign he fields next year

        You understand he doesn’t need to campaign, right? He leads a cult that will vote for him no matter what.

        Nah, he has plenty of rich people willing to pay for him, he doesn’t care about campaign funding regulations, what little there is, and he doesn’t pay his bills anyway.
