Democratic strategist 'absolutely' worried Trump 'going to unleash the Justice Department on' Democratic Party [View all]

(The Hill) Democratic strategist Jamal Simmons said Monday that he was “absolutely” worried that President Trump will “unleash the Justice Department on the Democratic Party.”

“The question then becomes the president’s deputy chief of staff came out today, and called the Democratic Party an ‘extremist organization,’ after the president said that he was going to take action against extremist organizations,” Simmons told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on “The Source,” in a clip highlighted by Mediaite.

“So, the question arises in my mind, is the president of the United States going to outlaw the Democratic Party? Is that where we’re headed? Is the president of the United States going to unleash the Justice Department on the Democratic Party?” he added.
