Will We See This In The U.S. In 2016?

From the West Australian: France's former president Nicolas Sarkozy has been charged with corruption and influence peddling, French prosecutors said Wednesday, a dramatic move in a criminal probe that could wreck his hopes of a political comeback.
The decision came after Sarkozy was questioned for 15 hours, marking the first time a French ex-head of state had been taken into custody in a criminal investigation.
The right-wing leader had been detained at a police station in a Paris suburb in connection with a suspected attempt to illegally influence judicial proceedings in one of a raft of colourful corruption cases he is implicated in....
He had been expected to attempt a political comeback in time for the next presidential poll in 2017, but those plans could be torpedoed after being charged in this case.
He vehemently denies any wrongdoing, and his allies on the right of the political spectrum denounced what they see as a witch-hunt against their man.
"Never before has a former president been subjected to such treatment, such an unleashing of hate," said Christian Estrosi, the mayor of Nice and an MP for Sarkozy's UMP party.  https://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/latest/a/24366410/sarkozy-charged-with-corruption/
Can we see this type of behavior by the Democrats against the Republicans?  Hell, we are already seeing it against Republicans Scott walker of Wisconsin and Chris Christie of New Jersey.  They have been victims of a political witch hunt by Democrats and the media and those two just happen to be front runners in the race for president against the Hildabeast, Hillary Clinton.
And when we get the next front runner of the GOP, the Democrats will bring supposed independent agencies of government against them.
Obama and Democrats have already politicized the IRS, Department of Justice, the military,  EPA and other Federal agencies.
What is happening going to happen in the United States, and sadly, since the democrats will be doing the scandalizing, the left will be silent or defend it as well as the media.
