Former Attorney General Eric Holder in an interview with MSNBC's Joy Reid warned that American democracy could end with Donald Trump being reelected to the presidency and that a second term would create a "weaponized Department of Justice."
REID: And the thing is, I think what a lot of people, when we talk about the January 6 insurrection, which was an insurrection, part of it was a denial of the right to vote, right?
HOLDER: Right.
REID: It was essentially saying that, in the states where Donald Trump, the swing states where Donald Trump lost, those voters in predominantly black parts of that state are illegitimate, that their votes are illegitimate and that Trump should be awarded the presidency despite that.
It was an attempt also to misuse the Justice Department for those ends. So I want to talk about the Justice Department, which you, of course, used to run. Donald Trump is vowing to use the Justice Department if he gets back into the White House to prosecute and persecute his political enemies.
Talk to me about the risks of his being able to actually accomplish that, because, in a second term, there would be no normies left. There would be people like this guy. Let me see if I have it. This is Mike Davis. This is somebody who has claimed that he is in line to potentially be attorney general of the United States. Here's what he's saying he would do with that job.

MIKE DAVIS, POTENTIAL TRUMP ACTING ATTORNEY GENERAL: I will rain health on Washington, D.C. We have talked about this, but I have five lists ready to go, and they're growing.

Hey Eric, have you sent any shipments of weapons to the Mexican drug cartels lately?
The USA as it is right now is NOT the USA I remember and loved.
Doesn’t matter, we learned in the Trump fraud trial in New York that a Statute of Limitations is only advisory and can be revoked instantly.
Dearest eric: Please go to prison for your many, many crimes.
Hey... Eric The Holder...
I don’t recognize it now.
It’s almost amazing how hard they try to make you believe he was never President before. But mostly it’s appalling.
Few dollops of filth match this creature in its degree of odiousness.
The United States that you “know and love” is a corrupt kleptocracy.
And you’re as happy with that as a pig in sh!t!.
I think Biden already accomplished that.
A TOTALLY TREASONOUS BASTARD
HE was the instigator for the push at WACO/Koresch.
Pull your head out of your rump and look around Eric.
Recognize the place? We sure don’t.
Let’s hope Holder and his commie buddies, who have been destroying this country, get their asses kicked in Nov.
The third thing Trump should do is demand Congress drag Holder back in front of them to account for Fast and Furious. Then publicly announce his DOJ would expedite an extradition request from Mexico so he could face prosecution there.

Not to mention the MILLIONS coming across our BORDERS!!!!
SHUT THE H.UP!!!!
