Attorney Mike Davis, who has long been rumored as a candidate for attorney general under Donald Trump’s new administration, issued an ominous threat to New York Attorney General Letitia James and “Democrat prosecutors” on Thursday: “proceed accordingly.”
The Trump ally made the intimidating remarks two days after Election Day during an interview with conservative podcaster Benny Johnson, where James, who oversaw Trump’s New York fraud case, became the center of the attorney’s scorn.
“Let me just say this to Big Tish James: I dare you to try to continue your lawfare against President Trump in his second term because, listen here, sweetheart, we're not messing around this time and we will put your fat --- in prison for conspiracy against rights, I promise you that,” Davis said at the beginning of his dark rant against prosecutors who pursued criminal cases against the now-president-elect.
“So, think long and hard before you want to violate President Trump’s constitutional rights or any other American’s constitutional rights it’s not going to happen again,” he said.
The attorney, who on Thursday downplayed rumors that he could be Trump’s next attorney general, continued by hurling insulting comments.
“Where do they find these people? It's just like at Weight Watchers – where do they find these these slobs to be prosecutors against Trump?”
He added that the Georgia case against Trump, built by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, would end up being disqualified “because big Fani hired her dumb unqualified boyfriend Nathan Wade.”
“I want to say to these Democrat prosecutors and these Democrat hellholes we're not messing around this time right so proceed accordingly," Davis said.
He added that he had no plans of becoming attorney general or White House counsel, but would continue his work running the Article III Project.
“And we're going to very effectively work with the Trump administration to make sure that President Trump has a very successful second term unimpeded by Democrat lawfare and election interference and all the other nonsense that they pulled – we're not messing around,” he said.
