One could be pardoned for thinking the OP is filled with irrational hatred, bordering on obsessive, given the plethora of anti-TRUMP! threads he/she/it is posting. One could even further deduce that there is a good chance he/she/it will actually not vote for said TRUMP!.
Is our system of justice equipped to deal with trump?

I certainly can't wait for Trump to take over the justice system and make you guys run and hide.Judge orders release of former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen by Friday, says book publication ban was retaliation
A federal judge on Thursday ordered the release from prison of President Donald Trump’s former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen by Friday afternoon.
Judge Alvin Hellerstein found that Cohen was taken into custody July 9 and returned to prison in retaliation for balking at a condition that he not publish a book — about Trump or anyone else — while serving the remainder of his three-year criminal sentence on home confinement.
“I’ve never seen such a clause, in 21 years in being a judge and sentencing people,” Hellerstein said at a Manhattan federal court hearing held after Cohen sued this week to win his re-release from prison.
Biden would have been impeached for such an egregious abuse of power by the Repub controlled House.
Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former lawyer and fixer, has been sent back to prison from which he was released in May, a day after balking at a requirement that he refrain from speaking to the media or publishing a book while under home confinement.
Cohen’s lawyer Jeffrey Levine said in an interview that he is trying to speak with Bureau of Prisons officials to discuss what can be done to get him out of the federal prison in Otisville, New York.
With trump, hardly anyone even remembers this incident because there have been dozens and dozens of scandals since. One of them being former US Attorney Geoffrey Berman being told by trump's DoJ to go after his enemies. trump so abused his power an article was written to explain the ways we need to reform our laws to deal with trump's lawlessness.

Lawfare by the jealous Senate made it suicidal for Julius Caesar to come back to Rome without his troops (which also was the law). It didn't work out well for the kangaroos. Nor did this century's lawfare against Yeltsin in Russia.

Its an outlier (no pun intended). But yeah, it’s equipped. The rich have an advantge in front of a judge. The white have an advatage in front of the judge. Rich white guys have a huge advantage in front of the judge. Thats just the way it is.Judge orders release of former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen by Friday, says book publication ban was retaliation

trump's guilty verdict, pending trials, and findings for the plaintiffs resulting in financial penalties in his civil cases are what it looks like when the justice system works. That is, a thorough examination of the facts by grand juries and trial juries after the defendant had every opportunity to defend himself resulted in the appropriate verdicts.
Your specious allegations, basically parroting trump's, are based on your belief in the infallibility of your Dear Leader.........not the evidence.

Actually, it was under Lincoln. The point being wartime prez's have historically exceeded their authority to do what they felt was necessary to get the country through a crisis.
What's trump's excuse for his past corruption of the DoJ and promises to do far worse if given another chance?

From the beginning, legal minds not involved in the lawfare against President Trump, were of the mind that none of the cases survived an appellate court.

I guess we may find out. When they heard how he just said we should use the military against political opponents, a chill must have gone down their spine.
The question is how many soldiers would revolt.

A good percentage of Americans understand that there was no past corruption and would look favorablely upon a President who was able to clean at the massive corruption currently in vogue.

Back in 2012 (before the age of Trump), I thought this grant of emergency authority was a wise decision, writing that “any President of either party should not be presumed to exercise powers granted in a dictatorial way.” And in the run-up to Trump’s election, I wondered if we could extend the same presumption to a putative President Trump.
Today, the answer to that question seems obvious. The fundamental norm to presume a lack of malevolent intent is now in doubt. And that, in turn, means that the entire postwar architecture of federal power—congressional legislation backed by executive discretion—is also in doubt.

Our system of justice has been weaponized by Garland and the Biden DOJ.
The Biden DOJ is Suing to keep INELIGIBLE PEOPLE on VOTER ROLLS IN VIRGINIA.
Give me a fucking break.
