Donald Trump was against the subject of lock him up chants Sunday. But rather than being made to his face, as in his appearance at a 2019 World Series game, they were made at a rally for senator and presidential candidate Bernie Sanders in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The chants broke out during speeches both by Sanders and campaign supporter Rep. Ilhan Omar (whose district includes the city), including when Sanders said of Trump, We have a president of the United States who is a pathological liar, who is running the most corrupt administration in history.

(112,212 posts)However, I'm saddened that our expectations of civic discourse have deteriorated to the point of imagining even worse behavior instead of striving for something better.

(6,278 posts)Spontaneous "lock him up chants" at public events? Count me in.
But for our candidates at a rally this is a chance to produce a contrast with Dolt 45 by acknowledging the sentiment but insisting that we don't lock people up without a fair trial.
