It was one of tRump's biggest campaign promises. He even made it part of one of the televised debates. His surrogates (like that jerk Flynn) even led the chants at rallies.
So, how 'bout it, Donny? Launch another investigation, whydontcha. Come up with some charges. Hold a trial. You know it's what your base wants.
Besides...
Maybe it could provide a very convenient distraction from "other" issues.

He's pretty much got his own lock 'em ups to worry about.
Intelligence agencies of our allies Europe reported meetings in European cities between Trump campaign reps/associates and Russians to our intelligence agency. They keep a pretty close eye on Russian operatives in Europe. This is going to be a long investigation.
It would make him look like a hypocrite considering his own Attorney General - one Jefferson Beauregard Sessions - openly lied during his confirmation process.
He may not have promised to lock up Clinton, but he sure implied he would and his followers chanted it often at his rallies.
I saw quite a few all over the Internet excited (including here on this forum) about how fast Hillary would land in jail.
Trump's reply to that was that it "played well."
He's a con man and he's really not that much different than a regular politician... if that regular politician knew very little about governing and spoke on a 3rd grade level, that is.

Well, when and if President Trump decides to lock her up, may I suggest San Quintin Prison in SF. Now, of course, it's an all male prison but I think Lyin' Hillary would be safe with all the murderers and gang members of the 4,200 male prisoners that are housed there today. They found that the prison was "old, antiquated, dirty, poorly staffed, poorly maintained with inadequate medical space and equipment and overcrowded...(prefect for Hillary's new residence)...Think of her views of San Fransisco! She will be fine. Maybe they will teach her to bake cookies in the kitchen.
After the chants started at the President-elect's post-election "thank you" rally in Michigan, he responded, "That plays great before the election -- now we don't care, right?"
Just another example of Trump saying anything that he thinks will make people like him. Once he gets what he wants, who cares, its just words.
I love how liberals just hear things differently than the average mostly normal person. An 'expression' is taken literally and one will be hounded forever if one uses it or is any way associated, even vicariously, with a group or individual who used it at some time, even in the long ago, far away, past .. unless it is them (the liberal) who is using it or another like it and then we are expected to forget it and understand that it was campaign rhetoric or it meant something rather less drastic even to the people chanting it than it may have sounded at the time.
Lock her up .. was an expression used to indicate that many do believe she committed crimes but while we know/knew that she probably could be indicted and convicted - and even, if all things in life were fair and equal, could be sentenced to jail for those crimes - we also knew that that would be very unlikely to happen.
It was NOT a campaign promise or requirement for Trump to actually DO that or even try to do that. We knew before the election that he would not pursue that - he told us so - so failing to do it was obviously not a factor in his election either.
Life moves on. Some of us know that. It amazes me that liberals all too often don't seem to unless of course it is to their advantage. From my vantage point, that indicates weakness and nothing better to do with their lives and mouths. But, hey .. what do I know .. I am on the receiving end of their ire day after day .. and they are getting their jollies off making it stay that way. I guess I am doing a public service keeping them happy.
