Biden says ‘Lock him up — politically lock him up’ in remarks about Trump
Quote:
President Joe Biden on Tuesday echoed language former President Donald Trump has used in the past, saying of the former president that "we gotta lock him up."
Speaking at a campaign event in New Hampshire, Biden said Trump’s policies are so “bizarre” and dangerous that if he’d warned about them five years ago “you’d lock me up.”
“We gotta lock him up,” Biden said to applause from the small crowd before he appeared to catch himself and added, “politically lock him up.”
“Lock him out,” Biden continued. “That’s what we have to do.”
The Trump campaign responded Tuesday night by challenging Vice President Kamala Harris to condemn Biden's remark.
“Joe Biden just admitted the truth: he and Kamala’s plan all along has been to politically persecute their opponent President Trump because they can’t beat him fair and square," campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.
