History tells us that if someone uses "lawfare," a type of power that weaponizes the legal system and institutions against your political opponents, the victim may use a different kind of power, whatever he may have access to, in his defense. But the Democrats and radical left don't listen to history. They think it began in 1619 and is a giant scam full of dead white males. They believe that for every action, there's not an equal and opposite reaction, but there is. And the backlash is coming.
