I do not equate legally going after those who have committed serious federal crimes with "revenge". It is justce! Trump has said so many times he will be and is a Law and Order president, and that is one of the reasons millions of us voted for him.

I don't want revenge. I want JUSTICE SERVED! Not just for the little guys. This is something that millions of us care about deeply. Not for revenge. Quoting Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn again:

“In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousand fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers, we are not simply protecting their trivial old age, we are thereby ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations.”

Great quote by Solzhenitsyn. He was some writer. His Gulag Archipelago shook me to the bone.
