Ohio Republican Rep. Jim Jordan torched CNN’s Dana Bash during a tense segment on whether President-elect Donald Trump would enact retribution on his opponents.

During an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Jordan got into a heated exchange with Bash over Trump’s campaign rhetoric promising to be his supporters’ “retribution.”

“People talk about retribution; the retribution has been from the other side,” Jordan said. “I’ve been trying to stop retribution for the last… 10 years.”
Bash started to interject, stating that she would address it but that she was referring to Trump’s promises to implement “retribution.” She questioned whether he would be in favor of Trump prosecuting alleged opponents through the Justice Department.“He didn’t do it in his first term,” Jordan responded, after which he was interrupted and pressed as to whether he would support retribution in Trump’s second term. Jordan countered by presenting alleged examples of the targeting of political opposition by the Biden administration
“I don’t think any of that’s going to happen, because we’re the party who’s against political prosecution,” he said when pressed as to whether Trump’s “retribution” would happen. “We’re the party who’s against going after your opponents using lawfare.”

Jordan and Bash then disagreed on whether Trump’s staff was in favor of free speech. When Bash asked Jordan which illegal immigrants would be deported, an equally heated discussion on immigration occurred.
President Joe Biden, former President Barack Obama, former Representative Liz Cheney, former Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Senator-elect Adam Schiff (D-CA), Vice President Kamala Harris, and others were all accused of being the targets of Trump’s “retribution,” which he made several times during his campaign.
Much of this, according to Trump and his allies, is payback for his prosecution, which they claim was motivated by politics.
