The Washington Roundtable: In recent weeks, Americans have begun to get a clearer picture of what a second Donald Trump Administration could look like. Some clues have come from organizations like the Heritage Foundation, which has laid out policy proposals for the Trump campaign. Others have come from the former President himself. Trump has said he would appoint a prosecutor to \u201cgo after\u201d Joe Biden and his family; on Veterans Day, this past weekend, he pledged to root out opponents and critics who he said \u201clive like vermin within the confines of our country.\u201d \u201cTrump wants to get rid of all of these guardrails that protect the government from becoming a spoil system,\u201d the staff writer Jane Mayer says, including by firing members of the federal civil service. Ultimately, how different would a second Presidency be from the last time that Trump was in the White House? \u201cThere are two words that I would say really underscore the difference this time, and why Trump in 2024 is arguably a much bigger threat in many ways than he was even eight years ago,\u201d the New Yorker staff writer Susan B. Glasser says. \u201cThe two words are \u2018retribution\u2019 and \u2018termination.\u2019 \u201d\xa0 The staff writer Evan Osnos joins Mayer and Glasser to weigh in.
