Summary

Mike Davis, a Trump adviser and possible nominee for attorney general, issued a threatening warning to New York Attorney General Letitia James, who sued Trump for business fraud, not to continue her legal actions against him in his second term, threatening to put her in prison.

Davis’s inflammatory remarks, including personal insults, come as James has vowed to defend Americans against any unconstitutional actions by the new administration.

Known for his extreme rhetoric, Davis has previously suggested punishing journalists and Trump’s political opponents harshly, though it’s often unclear when he’s serious.

Trump has hinted at a significant role for Davis in his administration.

    It’s a good reminder to all of us. The law is for us to follow, not for rich people or politicians. They can do whatever they want and get away with it.

      For the in-group, the law protects but does not bind. For the out-group, the law binds but does not protect.
