The cycle of retribution will need some exogenous event to burn it out. Republicans I expect are giving the Democrats everything they deserve after their lawfare crusade during Biden’s term.
Democrats will hopefully reply with something but more rules based, which Republicans will still cry foul about in 2029. I doubt they’ll be placated even when Trump passes - you see the Trumpism mimicry of JD Vance who is eager is ascend to his boss’ position.
I don’t know the answer but I don’t want to keep being the fool who blinks first.
I suspect the problem is the "fake news" automatic response to everything contra-Trump.
One could argue that the Bragg prosecution was overzealous (but still perfectly legal, btw), but what about the rest? Documents? Capitol "riots"? Georgia?
If those things were "lawfare", then I think the question is: what *isn't* lawfare when it comes to Trump? Is there any law he could egregiously break that merits prosecution?
So you buy the GOP line that the attempts to respond to Trump's many crimes and illegality was "lawfare" and "weaponizing the DOJ?" IMO the Dems were for sure rules-based and way too slow in taking the action that needed to be taken under the law (see Merrick Garland).

No I don’t. Just going with a narrative we can understand.
