For your consideration ...
No. In fact? They would then become my sworn enemies with some planned righteous revenge down the road when they least expect. I would faux forgive them. They would still see me, and I would still portray myself, as a friend during such time, keeping them close. (As in the saying, "Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.") Heck, I'd still invite them over for parties, get togethers, and dinners. It would be during this the time when the revenge planning is taking place gathering all necessary and relevant information, (with most intel provided by a very experienced and expensive private investigator), to carry out the task. Which would be planned out and executed many years later. Along with some mini revenge acts sprinkled in between causing them upsetting commotions along the way to the finale. With the final devastating planned element that would be served very, very, cold.
It would not be a physically harming revenge. But a serious mental anguish and financial loss type of revenge that would be attributed to many other possible circumstances far removed from myself. And the greatest satisfaction of all being? Is when they come to me looking for assistance, or help, that I just won't be able to assist them with. Though I would convey as much faux empathy that I could muster, which would be their only solace, while I laugh with a satisfied glee on the inside.
This would be the me that is in such a high station in life, as those friends, that I would have the time, resources, and connections, with which to do this. But right now, I'm just a serf like the rest of us, so it's just a thought exercise. But you can get from where I'd be coming. Because this is not just a simple one-on-one disrespectful type of betrayal that most people have experience with. This is the worst type of betrayal, the outright lies of my character, spread on a national scale, broadcast to millions and millions of people across the Nation, that would have caused others to believe what was being said about me, that changed their opinion of me, that caused people not to vote for me. That would nearly cause me to loose an election. That fomented such a hate that encouraged others to want to have me dead.
Yeah. That's how I would proceed if it were me in those shoes.
