Because she’s extremely careful, and decided she didn’t have enough to make a conviction stick.
Yet.
Give it time. She’s an excellent prosecutor, and she’s doing her job extremely well. She’s going after the people who are easily the most provably guilty first. This is a broad, far-reaching infestation of corruption and treachery, and I think she and Jack Smith are only getting started.
If Trump takes the stand and is under oath, he will say anything he can to shift culpability to others.
Allowing Trump to take the stand is probably the 2nd worse move his lawyers could make. The first is, naturally, being Trump’s lawyer.
The odds of Trump perjuring himself is so incredibly high.
Trump can do whatever he wants.
He’s never once listened to his lawyers before. Why would he do so now?
Yes, but would his credibility (plus the available evidence) be enough to convict someone else, like Graham?
I’m not sure, that’s not something I know much about. I do know that utterances under oath can be used to open new investigations and as testimonial evidence in other trials but I’m not sure how that works.

So many people don’t get this but it’s extremely important. Jack Smith and Fani Willis have been extremely careful and smart in the charges they have brought. They can add more later. And many think they will. But if you are going after the mob, you better make sure your charges are in order and you have a sure fire case or it will come back to bite you.
People kept asking why it was taking so long to bring charges at all - this is why. Yes, the crimes are obvious and some were even committed in public view, but if you’re going after high level government officials - if you’re going after a former president of the United States - you better make sure you have every last detail in order. For crimes of such magnitude, you can’t risk the case getting dismissed or overturned based on a frivolous detail or a minor oversight or a technicality. It has to be iron-clad and air-tight, with every ‘i’ dotted and every ‘t’ crossed.
Trump isn’t some common thief or vandal. He’s not just a crime boss or a corrupt politician. He’s a history-altering, would-be dictator who tried to stage a coup to overthrow our government. There is no room for error.
It’s not just that he’s a former president. It’s also that he’s:
