https://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/sessions-statement-lock-her-up-chant-conservative-student-summitAttorney General Jeff Sessions attempted to douse the fire he came under earlier this week for echoing lock her up chants at a high school conservative student leadership summit during a press conference in Boston Thursday.
When pressed about cheerily joining in on the anti-Hillary Clinton chants that were a staple during then-presidential candidate Donald Trumps campaign, Sessions sheepishly admitted that he couldnt help but go along with the enthusiastic high school students who spontaneously broke into the chant.
I perhaps shouldve taken a moment to advise them on the fact that people the things I mentioned today are presumed innocent until cases are made, Sessions said. So it was a great event to be with those kids and that would be my answer.
