Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) dismissed concerns that President-elect Donald Trump would seek revenge on his opponents. During a heated exchange on CNN’s *State of the Union*, host Dana Bash pressed Jordan on Trump’s campaign promise of “retribution.”
Jordan insisted that retaliation had come from the other side and denied that Trump would prosecute political enemies, claiming, “We are the party that’s against political prosecution.”
The conversation also touched on immigration and free speech, with Jordan and Bash clashing over Trump’s stance. Trump has repeatedly vowed to take action against figures like Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Liz Cheney, and Nancy Pelosi, which his supporters argue is a response to politically motivated prosecutions against him.
