It always struck me as curious that Trump - a career criminal with some 70 years elpractice, with roots in mob-adjacent culture - had no record of having people rubbed out. Until now, and not domestically.
As he feels power, and loosens inhibitions, this could change.

So ... no ordinary Friday night Nuzz dump?
If anyone has revelations they're itching to disappear into the abyss, now is the time!

Dem chances then depend how grievously divided the R's are, how politically fit and fit-to-district a D candidate is ... and perhaps how badly health care affordability has visibly deteriorated in the interim.

Following up: Under GA law, Gov must issue writ of election within 10 days of vacancy; election within 30 days thereafter; open field, no primary BUT GA is a runoff state - if nobody hits 50%, top 2 face each other (another 10 + 40?) later.

Depending on GA special election procedures (which is have not examined), it might come down to a plurality contest pitting a DJT proxy, a MTG proxy, and a Dem against each other.
Even if not, House GOP will play short-handed for weeks or months.

I recall an NYC Mayoral exit poll xtab figure of 9% [maybe wrong. didn't look it up] which would be in line with Trump/Bernie faction ... or with strategic Cuomo haters.
