Why "absolutely not"? Is a former president more equal than those who are not "ordinary citizens" or who are being prosecuted under rules that are less than well-settled? I agree that the weaponization of the criminal justice system for political purposes is pernicious.

Criminal prosecution of political opponents is banana republic stuff. Vindictive and mean. Trump may have scored some cheap points leading "Lock her up!" chants about HRC but he never actually brought charges. This would set a bad precedent.

The majority of successful prosecutions of ordinary citizens are either (a) not a perfect slam-dunk, and/or (b) not regularly prosecuted, and/or (c) based on laws that are varying degrees of contested, unsettled, etc. Why should former presidents be treated differently?
