Trump Sparks Controversy by Urging Action Against Political Rivals

President Trump asked the government to investigate his political opponents, leading to strong criticism.

Democrats fear he's misusing his power, possibly turning America into a 'banana republic,' like a country with political problems.

Trump targeted Senator Adam Schiff and Attorney General Letitia James, with allies accusing them of wrongdoing.

After Trump left office, James brought a major civil fraud case against him.

Trump fired a prosecutor who was overseeing the James case because he didn't agree with the lack of evidence.

Critics are worried that this behavior is like a dictator.
