Trump administration demonstrates systematic protection of allies while aggressively prosecuting political opponents, with documented cases including: demanding $230M from DOJ for investigating him while simultaneously investigating Comey, Schiff, and Letitia James without evidence; pardoning 1,600+ loyalists (including Jan 6 rioters and donors) while career prosecutors resign over orders to drop terrorist investigations; dismissing NYC Mayor Adams' corruption charges after proposed quid pro quo; and openly profiting from presidency through memecoins and Saudi deals ($600B+ announced) while his DOJ targets opponents, universities, and law firms that represented Democrats.
