Nearly twenty years ago, long before she was in office, a current Democratic U.S. senator wanted to buy a vacation home. She used an online mortgage broker based in North Carolina. On her loan application, she listed her own estimate of what her primary residence was worth. She got the loan and ultimately paid it back early.
Fast forward to today. Would it be wrong for the Department of Justice to start examining that loan application with an eye toward civil action against her? What about the North Carolina attorney general? Does the answer change if the attorney general ran on a campaign hinting that she was going “to go get” the now-senator?
To be clear, the person described above, to my knowledge, does not exist. But let’s say she did. Would any investigation by the next Trump administration, or by an assertive state attorney general, constitute “revenge?” Or would it simply be applying the exact same standard to Democrats that they have applied to Donald Trump?
The hypothetical described above is substantively almost identical to the civil action against Trump in New York that resulted in a judgement against him of nearly half a billion dollars.
The left has been falling all over itself at the prospect of what a second Trump administration might look like. They claim that Trump will be seeking dictatorial powers: “You know, like Julius Caesar.” They wring their hands and claim that his attempts at civil service reform would constitute an illegitimate power grab.

For the haters (aka bullies) being nice eggs them on because they perceive it as weakness. They done understand the strength it takes to not retaliate.
Besides, you can respond appropriately which doesn’t always seem nice but is really tough love.
The bullies, however, know how to play the system and use the accusation of not being nice, simply to manipulate others into compliance and subjection to them.
THEY certainly are not being nice all the while accusing you of it. Just like democrats.
The democrats made the rules. Use their rules and methods to utterly destroy every one of them.
His performance made me finally watch the entire movie.
i say go after them. everywhere you can.
do not let up.
they are the cancer in our country.
and it needs to be beaten out of the country.
THEY opened Pandora’s box, and yet now THEY are the ones hypocritically claiming immunity and drafting laws to protect federal employees from the backlash.
A movie quote comes to mind...

What’s that word they use so frivolously? (’fair’)
Wake up! We’re dealing with insane people. In time they will do it again. The object is to weaken them to the point where it will take them a very long time to be able to do it.
This is exactly what Trump and the Republicans MUST do. Anything less than full scale retaliation in kind will mean Democrats keep doing the same thing over and over and over again.
So, Eric Holder, Merrick Garland, Lois Lerner....perp walk all of them after a SWAT team raid on their homes at 5 am. Be sure to have all the right leaning media there to film it. Be sure to file the charges in THE most biased right leaning district you possibly can. Get a judge who will deny them a change of venue. Then deny them bail.....for years. Throw them all in solitary confinement while they await trial.
These are the rules the Democrats operate under. OK. Pay them back in kind.
Comments BUMP!
Many criminals NEVER stop until incarceration or elimination. USA destroying criminals should have WANTED posters with a bounty on their heads. 330+ million Americans vs. EVIL, republic wrecking PsOS.
Can’t let them win by cheating.
“It would be very disappointing to Just. Be. Nice.”
That’s true. I think Trump learned that lesson in 2017 when he let Hillary’s crimes slide — as well as being “nice” to so many other horrid people.
If he had taken care of business with Hillary from the get-go, he might’ve nipped in the bud so much other crap they threw at him.
I don’t call it revenge* as much as “accountability”. There has to be accountability for harmful and illegal actions unless you want those actions repeated. I truly believe some of the actions taken by the democrats were unconstitutional and illegal.
*Although I’m all for revenge and retribution. Payback, as they say, is hell.
Hear, Hear!!
It’s not revenge; it’s a reckoning.
I thought there were a number of good performances in Tombstone
but there is no doubt that Val Kilmer just about stole the show.
Lotsa good scenes
“You’re a daisy if you do...”
Revenge is not practical nor is it a good idea. But military justice is an excellent idea, with citizens’ militias standing in the gap if need be.
