Former President Donald Trump is focusing his third presidential campaign on retribution against his political opponents, often stating that revenge is 'justified.' Following his historic guilty verdict in New York in June 2024, Trump's public comments have increasingly emphasized the idea of 'retribution' if he returns to the White House. This stance has led to a split among Republicans, with 50% supporting the idea of investigating and criminally charging political opponents, while 73% of Independents oppose it. Some Senate Republicans have expressed concerns that such retaliatory prosecutions could lead the country down a problematic path.
