Former Atlanta mayor says she saw ‘hatred’ in crowd of Trump supporters

Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms (D) said she saw “hatred” in a crowd of former President Trump’s supporters gathered outside the Fulton County, Ga., jail on Thursday when she arrived for an interview with CNN ahead of Trump’s surrender.

Bottoms said the crowd mistook her for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis — whose years-long investigation into efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election in Georgia culminated last week in charges against Trump and 18 others — and began chanting “Lock her up” at the former Atlanta mayor.

“Just walking through the crowd there was a lot of hatred out here,” Bottoms told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, as the network showed the former president’s plane landing in the Peach State. “They thought that I was Fani Willis. Imagine that. A lot of hatred and really bad energy out here.”

Gee, you and yours engage in rank banana republic lawfare, and you're surprised that the objects of your hatred start to hate you back?

You'd think she just had her Bottom lanced.
