      Cuz she used campaign funds to cover up her affair.

      Oh wait, nvm, that’s the other guy. The criminal she’s prosecuting.

      It doesn’t matter for this specific case, but it is worth caring about when she is up for re-election because there’s footage of her (sorry, I don’t have a link- it was played on one of the late night shows last night) literally saying that she won’t have sex with employees. Her predecessor had a bunch of sexual impropriety accusations.

      So it’s worth the people of Fulton County to know that and if you live in Fulton county, that’s why you’re supposed to give a shit.

      Anyone else? No reason at all. Especially not Trump’s legal team.

        Wait, this happened to two prosecutors in a row? Why aren’t they advertising the shit out of this?

        “Welcome to Fulton County: the horniest county East of the Mississippi”

        “Come work for Fulton County. We get our fuck on.”

        Or just rename the county to Bonetown.

      I think it’s more about the appearance of any impropriety. Anything anyone can do to inject just a hint of shadiness into a process nowadays.

    Maybe I’m an idiot, but I don’t see how this should affect her ability to litigate this case.

    Now, her reelection prospects? Fulton county voters should definitely keep this in mind.
