Trump vows he’ll lock people up if he returns to the White House
August 30, 2023 | Terresa Monroe-Hamilton

In an interview with TheBlaze host Glenn Beck, former President Trump intimated that when he is reelected president and returns to the White House, he’ll have no choice but to lock people up.

The interview took place on Tuesday and Beck bluntly asked Trump if he regretted not having former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton locked up. TheBlaze founder also asked the former president if he would go after those on the Left who are violating the law and are persecuting conservatives once he is reelected.

“You said in 2016, you know, ‘lock her up.’ And then when you became president, you said, ‘We don’t do that in America.’ That’s just not the right thing to do. That’s what they’re doing. Do you regret not locking her up? And if you’re president again, will you lock people up?” Beck asked the former president now that he’s been indicted four times.

“Well, I’ll give you an example. Uh, the answer is you have no choice because they’re doing it to us,” Trump responded, indicating he would be forced to do it.

Good luck with all that.

[deb]

Ain’t gonna happen.

[Kamaji]

Won't happen.  Just another "promise" that he will conveniently forget about immediately should he be elected.

[mystery-ak]

He promised this in 2016....never happened.

[libertybele]

IF he is seated, he's not going to be able to do squat unless he is able to clean up the DOJ which he didn't do while he was president.

IMHO Trump will never be seated again, the leftists are going to make sure of that.  His threats do him no good.

Stupid thing to say.

Polls show that a majority of Americans believe these prosecutions are politicized.  Most Americans don't want to see it, but it is being driven by the Democratic left.  It's an issue likely to hurt them among swing voters.

Promising the same if he gets in office gives that issue right back to the Democrats, who undoubtedly will run on a "if Trump gets in all he's going to want is to take revenge and this will never end."

But it is classic Trump.  He's doing what will enthuse the core voters who are going to vote for him anyway, while losing swing voters.

And before any Trump supporters come after me for saying "they shouldn't be able to get away with this", I'm not saying that he shouldn't go after corrupt Democrats.  I saying that promising that publicly before the election is stupid.

Yes -- it was a stupid thing for Trump to say. It's not the first time he's opened his mouth and said something stupid. He never knows when to keep his mouth shut.  I don't think he's capable of doing that anymore.

Exactly right. The problem is that his "core voters" do not recognize that Trump needs to attract - and cannot win without - swing voters.

It has gotten to the point that I just don't care what he has to say anymore.  He's lost all credibility.

Well, it's better than, "She's suffered enough!"

[the OlLine Rebel]

He would be forced to do it because commie Dems are doing it to him.

Yup, that is just retribution.  Not justice.

There is still the entertainment and shock value of what he says, even if he is isn't capable of follow-through.

That is something leaders from countries like Russia would do.

Okay, 'Neville'....

Provided he does not take other Republican candidates down with him in 2024

So, not lashing out childishly and trying to take down opponents is caving to dictators….

No...incredibly, you STILL want to play the 'Gentleman'...the 'Adult', thinking today's voter will be won over.

He was fraudulently impeached TWICE where today's evidence shows he was telling the truth all along...it was a Black Op conducted by the Obama DOJ and Intelligence community...with Hillary Clinton as co-conspirator.

No sir. 

I wish they built the gallows on the White House South Lawn and President Trump gives a thumbs down from the balcony...

I want Comey, Brennan, Barack and Big Mike..Peter Strzok, Lisa Paige and Joe Biden to take those "13 steps" and swing.  During Cherry Blossom Festival.

@DCPatriot

All of which is coming to you in fitful and erotic dreams.
Reality is nothing of the kind.

Your emperor will do no such thing.
