And it is not weaponizing the Department of Justice to demand accountability for those who weaponized the Department of Justice, and nobody knows what that looks like more than President Trump.

In fact, he absolutely rejects the idea that there should be a separation between criminal investigations and the politically elected leader of the United States.
