Here is another gripe. If the Republicans take over, I don't want them getting "revenge". I want them to govern responsibly, and act under the law only when needed. It seems like we are falling into this "you just wait until it's our turn" mindset and cycle. Way too much time spent on "let's get 'em" by both sides. So in other words, it's OK for the Democrats to do it but not for the Republicans to do it? Give me a break from the hypocrisy.

No I mean it's not ok for either party to do it. Someone should be the first to put down their sword. But neither will.
And yes I know the Democrats are just as bad or worse
I just wish they would all cut the crap and work for the common good.

The Dems and Repubs are going to snipe at each other forever. No big deal. What really bothers me is the extreme left leaning out of control media, the corrupt DOJ and FBI. Once upon a time the media was the public watch dog and called it the way it was no matter which party was doing wrong. Now it is extremely left wing and does it’s master’s (Democrats) bidding. I find it kind of funny that the left media repeats the Dem’s taking points word for word. See… www.foxnews.com/media/ny-times-staffer-wanted-check-schumer-before-running-sen-tim-scott-op-ed-bari-weiss-saysI see that Trump wants all the paperwork released. Hopefully that includes the Warrant Affidavit . That’s the meat of the matter.

This pursuit of a former President is a Pandora's box. when they do this to Trump the natural thing is for the minority to retaliate when they take power. A determined enemy could dig up something to harass any former President with. If both sides take the "Wait till we are in charge" view it will be tit for tat ad nauseum. It could go on forever or spiral out of control. It used to be a President left office and you knew that the next guy wouldn't do anything to him because he knew he might be next. While far from a perfect solution it kept the peace. Biden and his ideologue handlers did not seem to get the memo. I'm actually missing the days of the old crusty guys in congress that had sense enough to mind their own corruption and not rock the boat. Sad

In the future history, will these days be looked at similar to the days of Hoover looking for communists?

Maybe we should start moving these comments back to the political forum. Campfire can be used a bit for current events that are political but the back and forth banter of who is more right vs wrong has its place in the political forum.

And yes I know the Democrats are just as bad or worse I just wish they would all cut the crap and work for the common good. If the Right wins in '24, then the Left will be back to "peaceful protests" and pillaging again. BTW, I don't remember the Right being accused of burning down neighborhood stores, looting, and destroying millions of dollars of private property. Seems the sword has been swung for the most part by one side for quite a while.
