Former President Donald Trump said Tuesday night it’s “very possible” his political enemies could face prosecution after he was convicted last week on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to cover up a hush money payment made to a porn star.

In an interview with Newsmax, Trump said: “It's a terrible precedent for our country. Does that mean the next president does it to them? That's really the question.”

Trump, of course, is running again for president.

Trump said he could have sought criminal charges against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, his opponent in the 2016 election, but thought it would have set a “a terrible precedent for our country.”

“But they want to do it,” he said. “So, you know, it's a terrible, terrible path that they're leading us to.

“And it's very possible that it's going to have to happen to them,” Trump added. 

President Joe Biden's reelection campaign said in a statement that Trump's remarks are "the latest proof that he will do anything to regain power, preserve his own freedom and seek revenge on anyone who opposes him."

“Trump is pledging to rule as a dictator on ‘day one,’ punish his enemies, embrace violence done on his behalf, and warns of a ‘bloodbath’ if he loses," said campaign spokesperson James Singer. "The warning signs are clear for all to see. Trump is a danger to our Constitution, a threat to our democracy, and so consumed by his own failed, diminished state he has gone off the deep end.”

Trump has repeatedly claimed the New York case is politically motivated. He and other Republicans have also alleged, without evidence, that President Joe Biden and his administration were behind the prosecution. Both Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland have insisted they had no involvement.

Biden has also denied having any input into the federal prosecutions of Trump in Miami and Washington, and Garland appointed a special counsel, Jack Smith, to independently run the investigations.

The former president’s remarks come as candidates, officeholders and members of his family are urging their fellow Republicans to start charging Democrats with crimes.

“Time for Red State AGs and DAs to get busy,” Rep. Mike Collins of Georgia wrote on the social platform X, formerly Twitter, after a Manhattan jury found Trump guilty.

Influential conservative activist Charlie Kirk urged Republican prosecutors to get “creative” in bringing charges: “Indict the left, or lose America,” he said on X.

In a podcast interview, Trump’s oldest son, Donald Trump Jr., said, “We have to fight fire with fire.”
