He did say that. He threatened to appoint a special prosecutor to go after her, and then he continued by saying she'd be in jail if he was president.
This is crazy talk, and it is seen only in dictatorships.
You're crazy talking. He never said what you claim he said. We should have had a special prosecutor to Avoid political interference and decisions. Trump would do what Obama should have done.
Folks, there is a reason why Presidents do not get to order special prosecutions in this country: it's because that is exactly what dictators do in places like the Congo or North Korea. This is America, where we have things like separation of powers and due process; where we don't give political winners the power to jail their rivals.
Never in the history of American Presidential politics have we ever had a candidate go into this kind of chilling territory. But then again, a lot of very negative records are being broken by Trump as of late.
Look, the Hillary email thing has been through like a year+ of investigation. FBI digging through it. Attorney General digging through it. Everything that could be scrutinized has been scrutinized. The evidence was looked at by independent entities in accordance with due process. Hillary handled her emails dismally and recklessly, and it calls her judgment into question. But nothing that can warrant the burden of criminal culpability has come of it. You can argue otherwise, but you're just letting your partisan zeal mask conjecture for fact.
For Trump to suggest now that he would convene a forum to reverse the process that's been carried out and jail Clinton is illegal and recklessly anti-Constitutional. Do people even understand what a massively dangerous precedent this sets?
And make no mistake: if you argue in support of this kind of behavior by a leader of ANY political persuasion and can't see you way through your partisan haze to recognize how dangerous this is, then you're anti-American. You're anti-Constitution. And you're not worthy of the heritage of this nation. End of story.
Crooked Hillary is the one trying her best to turn the country into a banana republic by corrupting government.
Typical democrat thinking. Agree with them or your anti-American. Why stop there ? Don't leave out Deplorable and unredeemable. Its the new badge of courage.
Um, President Nixon, in 1973,, ordered a special prosecutor, Archibald Cox, to investigate the Watergate scandal.
civics FAIL!!!
No Nixon ordered the firing of the Special Prosecutor which led to 2 people in the cabinet resigning. It also forced the House to start Impeachment. Remember Nixon tried to kill democracy.
