The warning IS there…..
A second Donald Trump Presidential term in office WILL be the “Revenge’ …Searching TO Destroy, ANYONE that he feels has ‘wronged him’. and stood in way of doing WHATEVER ‘He’ wants legal or Not.…….
YOU HAVE BE WARNED….
In private, Trump has told advisers and friends in recent months that he wants the Justice Department to investigate onetime officials and allies who have become critical of his time in office, including his former chief of staff, John Kelly, and former attorney general William P.

In repeated comments to advisers and lawyers around him, Trump has said his biggest regrets were naming Jeff Sessions and Barr as his attorneys general and listening to others — he often cites the “Federalist Society” — who wanted him to name lawyers with impressive pedigrees and Ivy League credentials to senior Justice Departmentpositions.
