Right? The US has been doing this the whole time. Let's get Trump back, apparently he is the only president in the last forty years who couldn't drum up fake charges against anyone he wanted.

For clarity I'm joking. Obummer and Bush always managed to find a few terrorists lying around when they needed one, so Trump trying and failing to do this doesn't look, idk, worse than what we already had.

COINTELPRO is only what we know was being done by the feds in the 60s. Who knows how long it has been going on or what other programs we don't know about. MK Ultra, Tuskegee Syphilis Experiments, and Indian schools all come to mind for "US government does sketchy shit in the name of national security."
