Also, using the justice system to systematically target political opponents is pushing the boundaries of yet another impeachable offense.

If they have evidence of crimes by the previous administration and do nothing then you would deride them for that.

Personally? Yes.

Politically? Trump has nothing to gain by going after a miserable old woman. Dredging that back up wouldn't add anyone to the 32% of the country that still licks the turd from his boots, but it would further alienate the smaller and smaller block of voters in the center that are inclined to support Republicans in 2018. If he tries to manufacture a Hillary Clinton show trial at this point, she'll be wrongfully exonerated and he'll be laughed out of office for killing the GOP.
