Have you voted in Townhall's straw poll yet? I have a couple of times, and I've picked Ron DeSantis as my preferred candidate. Don't get me wrong, though … if he's the nominee — and it looks like he's going to be — I'll vote for him a third time. I think he's carrying a lot of baggage and tends to shoot himself in the foot a lot, but like a lot of other people, the more I see him prosecuted, the more I like the idea of him back in the Oval Office.
I wrote a couple of days ago over the media getting the vapors over Trump calling his political opponents "vermin." It felt pretty good to see the media melting down again over nothing — the Washington Post published a piece about his rhetoric mirroring that of Hitler. I'm not excited to cover four years of the media calling Trump a white supremacist and a fascist, but I think the world would benefit from some mean tweets about now.
The Hill reports that a President Trump would investigate "every Marxist prosecutor in America," which I'm fully behind.
Former President Trump signals he's out for revenge in second term.

He told supporters that he would direct the Justice Department to investigate "every Marxist prosecutor in America."https://t.co/2WohGIlmbj pic.twitter.com/0H1fCiK0fW
The sheer number of people concerned about a "revenge presidency" proves there's a lot more draining of the swamp to do.
I’m so down for that.

Every Marxist prosecutor SHOULD be investigated and removed.

These terms are acceptable

He deserves every last bit of revenge for what they have done to him.

And he is 100% justified in doing so, after how the establishment weaponized all levers of government and the private sector against him and the American People.

Revenge?
— Cynical Publius (@CynicalPublius) November 16, 2023
You meant "justice."
That isn’t revenge. It’s a reasonable and necessary step in cleaning up this mess.

Revenge would be abusing the DOJ and arresting Democrats on bogus charges like they have gone to him.
It's high time for a rigorous cleanup. When he gets a second term, expect a no-holds-barred approach to restoring law and order.

Is this supposed to make me not vote for him?
— Alec Dacyczyn (@AlecDacyczyn) November 16, 2023
I can't find a single reply that doesn't support Trump. I'm not sure if that was the reaction The Hill was looking for, but that's what it got.
