Trump's Chilling Vision: Weaponizing the Justice Department Against Opponents

Former President Donald Trump suggested in an interview that he or another Republican president could use the Department of Justice to go after and indict political opponents, claiming that his opponents have done the same to him. Trump referred to the "weaponization" of federal law enforcement and stated that if he were president and someone was beating him badly in an election, he would consider indicting them to remove them from the race. He also criticized the current administration for unleashing this practice and warned that the people would not stand for it.
