Trump Says He'll Imprison Clinton's Lawyers, Too

Trump Says He'll Imprison Clinton's Lawyers, Too
Jailing her isn't enough. He wants to prosecute the lawyers who advised her on her emails.
TIM MURPHY OCT. 12, 2016 5:53 PM

After Donald Trump called for Hillary Clinton to be jailed during Sunday's presidential debate, some Trump surrogates suggested he was simply joking, and his running mate Mike Pence said his remarks had been taken out of context.

But at a Wednesday rally in Lakeland, Florida, Trump promised that no, he really did intend to throw Hillary Clinton in prison if elected—and to prosecute her lawyers for good measure.

Trump's been waiting to take down adversarial lawyers for years, and more than winning lawsuits or settling. Pounds of flesh.
