This is not a joke. Donald Trump is stating very plainly what he would do if reelected.

This headline might as well be from before the 2016 election. What does New Republic think he meant by "lock her up" anyway? Media outlets really need to drop the "😱😱😱 we can't believe Trump said the same stuff he's been saying for years 😱😱😱" act.

"Goes FULL DERANGED - says the same thing he's been saying every week for the last 432 weeks"

Hey, those ratings don't generate themselves!

IKR? At this rate I think the media is deliberately doing this to get a reaction from his base and reelect him. Why? Because he's the best thing to ever happen to their ratings. Not even the hysteria surrounding mass shootings has that kind of staying power. Never mind he lives rent-free in the heads of his detractors, of which there are so many.
