A List of Those Who Could Be in Line for Trump's Retribution'
Briefly

President-elect Donald J. Trump has declared that he will use the powers of his office for vengeance against those he believes have wronged him, promising retribution to his supporters. 'I am your warrior, I am your justice,' he stated, suggesting a personal agenda to exact revenge on political opponents and officials.
Speaking specifically about Jack Smith, the special counsel who indicted him, Mr. Trump remarked that he should be considered 'mentally deranged' and stated he should be 'thrown out of the country,' demonstrating his willingness to target individuals involved in legal actions against him.
Letitia James, New York's attorney general, is also a frequent target; Trump has called for her prosecution after suing him over property valuations. In his rhetoric, he positions her as an adversary deserving punishment, revealing how his political challenges fuel his vindictive language.
