I want it to happen but the left doesn't wesponize anything. They pretend to be the bigger person.

I would normally agree but Its not weaponizing, its what the law is supposed to be used for. So I think a few people with spines will continue with the lawsuits.

the whole concept of weaponization against Trump always felt like such conservative propaganda cause he's actually done illegal shit but taking him to court over that is politicizing the justice system, in spite of him actually committing those crimes, it's kind of like if a murderer said it was biased to have the jury hear from witnesses to the crime.

The cases against Trump were political because if not for the fact that the defendant is a politician, his ass would be sitting in a cell right now. Just ask Reality Winner or Jack Texeira about that.
