The Fulton County DA can now use evidence obtained by the House select committee to argue for a grand jury indictment against the former president.
Despite the fact that Trump himself has not been subpoenaed as part of the investigation, attorney Rich Eisenin article published Friday that he is very likely the ultimate target. Eisen has previously worked with the House Judiciary Committee and worked to build the case for Trump's first impeachment.
"Trump is clearly the target of the investigation," Eisen stated."And it's usual that either the target doesn't get a subpoena at all—or it comes at the very end of the process." Legal analyst and attorney Norman Eisen said that former President Donald Trump is very likely the ultimate target of the Fulton County DA investigation, despite not being subpoenaed.

Without that evidence, some analysts said that it would be challenging to pin charges on Trump, in the event that he genuinely believed election fraud was afoot in Georgia. However, testimony from the likes of former Attorney General Bill Barr and more to the select committee alleges that the former president was told repeatedly by multiple people that such theories were unfounded or outright false.
Another legal expert, former Manhattan prosecutor Adam S. Kaufmann, explained to The Daily Beast that these revelations make the Fulton County DA's job much easier.
