If Trump wins this election, I suspect he will go scorched earth on every agency, state, federal official that has tried to sabotage his last term and his current reelection. Of course, that would take time to clean house TO prosecute accordingly. Even so, there is simmering resentment that will grow larger and larger each time Trump is unfairly prosecuted. That powder keg is going to erupt, it's just a matter of time.

No one will change their opinion of Trump based on this except for Republicans that will feel even more under attack and want to back Trump even more for it. Will only end up helping Trump in the end.

Psssssssst. I mean I still support some of his decisions, but come on. Getting the 2020 election stolen from him was the death blow.

Agencies?
Ex-PoTUS is on the menu now.

@Myles the Potatophile It will be about the same as calling him a racist-Nazi-fascist-bad-man.

It's a violin scam by the GOP and the Dems.

One of a pair of con artists, posing as a retired violinist, leaves his precious violin as collateral against some small debt while he goes and fetches the cash. While he's gone, the other con man presents himself to the mark as an instrument dealer — business card and everything. He wants to have a look at the violin he saw in passing, and as soon as it's produced, he's delighted — as he thought, it's an original Stradivarius! It's worth hundreds of thousands of dollars! He must have it, but he has a plane to catch and can't wait for the old man to return — Dear sir, would you please give him my business card?

Now the mark's greed comes in. If he's a good man, he gives the old violinist his instrument and informs him of his good fortune, and the scam has failed (the cons have lost nothing, however). If he's a lowlife, however, the scam may succeed. He offers the old man a thousand dollars for his violin — the old man clearly has no idea of its actual value, but loves it like a family member. The price goes up and up, and eventually the con artist gives in, selling his beloved violin for ten thousand dollars. He walks out with the money, and the new owner waits a bit, then calls the number on the card. It's a false number, of course, and any professional will immediately recognize that the violin is worth perhaps fifty dollars, and the old man and the "dealer" meet up to split the take and get another cheap violin.

It can't, no.

As for any ideas that the Republican Party will change course now, be reminded that the RNC at this point is controlled by Trump's daughter-in-law and a politician he is friendly with.

They won't. Executive branch commands BOP, so he can direct the BOP to give him whatever he needs to do the job for the duration of his presidency, or be remanded into the custody of the secret service and us marshalls.
