Now, the president has successfully orchestrated the indictment of one of his political enemies, former FBI Director James Comey, in an unusually brazen example of corrupting the criminal justice system. What are the odds that the Republican will feel satiated and curtail his revenge campaign?

Roughly zero. NBC News reported:

As he departed the White House for the Ryder Cup tournament, Trump was asked by a reporter who ‘the next person on your list in this retribution’ will be now that Comey has been indicted. ‘It’s not a list. I think there will be others. I mean they’re corrupt,’ Trump said. ‘These were corrupt radical left Democrats because Comey was essentially a — he’s worse than a Democrat.’

Obviously, this was largely gibberish. Neither the president nor those around him have ever presented credible evidence of his Democratic foes being “corrupt.” On the contrary, those looking for evidence of actual corruption should look no further than Trump’s charges against Comey.

Q: Now that Comey has been indicted, who is the next person on your list?

TRUMP: It's not a list, but I think they'll be others. I mean, they're corrupt. These were corrupt radical left Democrats.

.......The prosecution is advancing anyway because Trump fired the prosecutor who insisted on following the law, ignored the career prosecutors who did their job, dismissed the concerns of his sycophantic attorney general and used an unqualified loyalist, just days into her tenure, to exact revenge against a former ally who dared to cross him.

MSNBC’s Ken Dilanian reported that within the Justice Department, many insiders believe this is “among the worst abuses” in the history of the institution.

“There will be others” suggests that we ought to append a caveat: this is among the worst abuses so far. Because Comey is hardly the only, or the last, person on Trump’s enemies list.
