If Trump wins, what should be the response to the lawfare?

1. Go scorched Earth and install hardcore Trump loyalists in the DOJ and other agencies and go after crooks like Merchan and Smith
2. Still clean house at many federal agencies day 1, but put in place independents at the top of those agencies and try to put in place legislation to prevent future lawfare from occurring for other administrations
As much as I want to see #1, I feel like #2 might be the better long term solution and result in less of a backlash in the '26 midterms.

Even if you put guys like Kash and Grenell in there, the bureaucracy will undermine everything.
Plus, I know we laugh at stuff like Conservative Treehouse, but that guy has done a pretty job of explaining the failsafes the IC put in place to prevent anything damaging to them from being released. Everything is protected by confidentiality, sources and methods, and potentially damaging to national security (them).

Govern. Push the agenda through.
If you want nothing to get accomplished, you could try and do things like this.

My understanding is that Trump has over 2000 loyalists lined up to take over all the top layers of every agency,and they will be coordinating with the new Federal Office of Government Efficiency to selectively streamline every agency. Employees that are removed, if they can't be fired, will be reassigned to roles in North Dakota, Alaska and Mississippi.

The big jury, American voters, have spoken. You prosecuted your case to them and you lost.

He needs to make sure it doesn’t happen again. I’m in favor of him creating his own goon squad and making this a national security issue so he would have carte blanche. Public hangings, public admissions etc.
Do it Donald.

Write a general outline of this statute for me, please.
You're talking about state and federal, civil and criminal, all of which survived basic propriety and legal grounds.
Are we getting into mindreading (that they were done for nefarious political purposes)?
This gets back to the "what is lawfare, exactly?" meme. How are you going to make legal litigation now illegal without making lots of things that aren't lawfare now illegal?

He should use his power against his enemies.

I've often said that you should never give power to an ally you don't want in the hands of an enemy one day

Right, I mean if we devolve to imprisoning the party that is out of power each time, then the USA will quickly become like Brazil or Argentina where that goes on.

So now lawfare is now criminal (federal and state), civil (both by government and private plaintiffs, federal and state), AND federal-regulatory?
Seems like this is a bunch of things being grouped together.
Throwing in regulatory overreach makes defining this extremely complicated.
