The Biden DOJ and other Democrats have brought dozens and dozens of charges against the current president's likely challenger in next year's election.
Recently, Trump warned Democrats that it could work the other way around, and the media hyperventilation was immediate. Many outlets reported the story, and here's CBS News' offering:
Trump suggests he or another Republican president could use Justice Department to indict opponents https://t.co/Tv13WeyJ3i

How dare Trump!
I wonder where he got that idea?

It's a total mystery!
CBS News reports that Trump only "claims" that the Biden White House and other Democrats have weaponized the justice system against him:
Former President Donald Trump mused in an interview Thursday that he or another Republican president could use the Department of Justice to go after and indict political opponents, as he claims his political opponents have done against him.
Trump, the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, told Univision News that the so-called "weaponization" of federal law enforcement "could certainly happen in reverse."
Yes, the Democrats certainly hope that they are the ones who can weaponize the DOJ against political opponents but will hyperventilate if it happens the other way around, all with the MSM's help.
So continue Joe’s policy.

Biden administration already doing it. Whats the problem?

The media headline on this should simply be "if elected, Trump plans to keep one Biden policy in place." There would be one difference though:
He was suggesting they could instruct them to go after actual crimes. Not make up crimes like the Biden administration is doing. This administration is breaking all previous norms and has severely damaged the country by doing so.

This administration has dragged the country down to a point where it'll be hard to recover.
Yep, those are the rules now. Indict the former president. Biden should’ve thought about that before going after Trump.

😂, that’s what the current POTUS is doing. Nice try spin doctors.

They're doing their best.
If they wore red hats the FBI would currently be conducting manhunts for each and every one of them https://t.co/FvtZJQf3KZ

Maybe the Dems didn't think this all the way through.
