How the Trump Train Finally Crashed for Jenna Ellis

During Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, attorney Jenna Ellis penned a series of Facebook posts suggesting Trump was a “narcissist,” and an “unethical, corrupt, lying, criminal, dirtbag.”

Then Ellis became one of his staunchest allies, even committing a felony on behalf of Trump’s 2020 election lies. But by September 2023, she had returned to calling Trump a “malignant narcissist.” Now she’s flipped on him in a racketeering case in Georgia.

Ellis pleaded guilty on Tuesday to one count felony count of aiding and abetting false statements. Crying during her court appearance, Ellis agreed to a five-year probation, $5,000 in restitution, and 100 hours of community service. The charge was part of a sprawling case in which four Trump allies have pleaded guilty to helping the ex-president push false claims of voter fraud.
