Because, you know....

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis deflected when asked how a draft of the indictment leaked Monday prior to the grand jury voting to charge former President Trump and 18 others.

We know why it leaked. The story about Biden saying "No comment" to a question about the Maui victims is damaging so they took it off the front page by indicting Trump again. The indictment was rushed and mistakes were made.
The indictment itself is incredibly scary. It claims Trump and his lawyers make up a criminal enterprise because they strategized on how to challenge the election results. It is a bizarre concoction of tweets, emails and public statements, along with some factual inaccuracies the prosecutor wove into a nonsensical conspiracy. But once again it is predicated on the notion that Trump was lying when he made claims about voter fraud and the stolen election - back in 2020.
They are making it illegal to challenge or question an election result. Think of how dangerous this is to Democracy. It is a green light to cheat because once the election is certified, no one can investigate or question the outcome.
A good defense lawyer could rip this indictment to shreds starting with the fact that they cannot prove Trump was lying. All they have to prove is that Trump believed, or a reasonable person could believe, there was fraud in the election. Start with the fake story about a water main break in Fulton county. But there ere also dozens of reports of fraud and shenanigans at that time, none of which had been thoroughly investigated at the time Trump called the Georgia Secretary of State. This case should be a slam dunk except we will undoubtedly see another liberal Trump hating judges get the case, and a biased Atlanta jury incapable of objective reasoning. Democrats are counting on it.
I have one other question about this indictment. It is somewhat repetitious of the Jack Smith indictment in that it relies on Trump lied about the election outcome which Smith called fraud. The Georgia case relies on the same claim. Ironically the Georgia case comes from the state where Stacy Abrams falsely accused Brian Kemp of rigging the election she lost.
Here is what she said after the election and she was forced to concede:
“I, on November 16, 2018, acknowledged at the top of my speech that Brian Kemp is the governor of Georgia and I even wished him well at the end of the speech." “And in the middle, I talked about the fact we had a system that he managed, that he manipulated, hurt Georgia voters and the responsibility of leaders is to challenge systems that are not serving the people.”
