The DOJ is set to wind down Trump’s federal cases.

Summary

Fox News hosts Dana Perino and Greg Gutfeld on The Five controversially suggested the death penalty for prosecutors involved in Donald Trump’s criminal cases.

This comes as the Department of Justice prepares to wind down federal cases against Trump in line with a policy against prosecuting sitting presidents.

Trump faces state charges in New York and Georgia, where he cannot use presidential pardons.

The hosts noted that Trump’s legal challenges appear to have strengthened his support, potentially aiding his return to the White House.

    The Republican party is done with any sort of politeness or goodwill, to the point of not conceding elections. They are breaking the system and rebuilding it in the aftermath. You can’t stop them from breaking the thing by using the thing itself.

        It is already broken – and he has succeeded – is what I’m getting at. But Democrats will still try to use the thing.
