But at least one thing seems clear: Mr. Bragg may have been the first local prosecutor to do it, but he will probably not be the last. Every local prosecutor in the country will now feel that he or she has free rein to criminally investigate and prosecute presidents after they leave office. Democrats currently cheering the charges against Mr. Trump may feel differently if — or when — a Democrat, perhaps even President Biden, ends up on the receiving end of a similar effort by any of the thousands of prosecutors elected to local office, eager to make a name for themselves by prosecuting a former president of the United States.
What do you mean, "perhaps?" This is a lesson the Democrats never learn.

Oh, no. People who've spent years threatening their opponents with politically-motivated retribution are so convinced Trump's indictment is politically-motivated retribution that they are threatening politically-motivated retribution, in retribution. Help. Eek.
Did someone say "political lessons never learned"?
