It would be very probably the MSM gave big money to Democratic candidates and violated various laws. Thus Trump has barganing power. To the MSM he can say "You do this, or you go to prison. Gitmo, and a prison ship, is ready for you." This is why Trump will be bargaining with some people. He just doesn't have time to prosecute 65,000 criminals. He will, however, make time for the worst of them all, the ones guilty of sedition.
