Germain told Newsweek he suspects that Trump and his attorneys want to keep Willis in place.
"I suspect they are hoping that she is not disqualified, so they can divert the focus away from their conduct and towards the prosecutor," he said.
Germain said he believes that replacing Willis and Wade might make the case more difficult for Trump.
"I wonder whether the Trump team is really better off if they are removed. They would get a new prosecutor without baggage," he said.
