Any reasons why they aren't going after European officials, or is this the first round and they're gonna wait for people to flip before we start extraditing European nationals?

Once it starts even just threatening domestic jobs, though, all bets are off. I think you're overestimating the importance the public would place on the perception that the exec branch would be, in this case, prioritizing foreign goodwill over domestic jobs. It would play out disastrously in the media and the right would just sing their usual 'tyrannical president' bullshit going into the election but this time far more people would listen - and even if it didn't work it would only be because Hilary moved right and promised to dump the case once she was in office.

How would you think it would play out in the court of public opinion for companies saying "we're packing up and leaving because your government won't let us do business with a bunch of europeans"?
