If I win,” Donald Trump threatened Hillary Clinton during Sunday night’s debate, “I am going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation.” And he left no ambiguity as to the intended result. “People have been, their lives have been destroyed for doing one fifth of what you have done. And it’s a disgrace.”
“You know,” Clinton later responded, “It’s just awfully good that someone with the temperament of Donald Trump is not in charge of the law in our country.” Trump couldn’t resist. “Because you would be in jail,” he broke in.——————
I remember that moment, of course.
And, you know what? I wouldn’t be surprised if he DID tell Sessions to do that, and Sessions said “Sure! We’ll start a committee to investigate the possibility of exploring the procedures to do just that. Give me until 2029, if I don’t recuse myself in the meantime.”
My point was, I never saw Trump lead or even participate in the “lock her up” chants in his rallies. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.
