To understand what’s going on in the world requires some common sense.
Even if Elon Musk were a total nazi — maybe he is, how would I know for sure? — there is zero chance he would apropos of nothing do a heil Hitler during a post-inauguration speech.
This is so even if you hate him, even if he really is a nazi.
Similarly if Trump were to prosecute the J6 committee whether that constituted political retribution depends not on whether he doesn’t like them or they are his political adversaries, but what charges he were to bring against them (assuming they hadn’t just been pardoned.) If he rung up Liz Cheney on witness tampering and destruction of evidence, those are serious crimes.
If he went after her because she exaggerated the value of her property to secure a loan or paid off a porn star and marked it as a business expense, that would be retributive lawfare.
It really doesn’t matter if you hate Trump or love Cheney. This is just basic common sense understanding.
