President Biden raised eyebrows this week when he told a New Hampshire crowd that former President Donald Trump needs to be locked up “politically.”

“Our democracy is at stake,” he said. “Think about it. Think about what would happen if Donald Trump wins this election.”

Biden then said “I know this sounds bizarre. It sounds like if I said this five years ago, you’d lock me up. We got to lock him up.”

But the president appeared to instantly catch himself, adding “politically lock him up. Lock him out. That’s what we have to do.”

From Fox News:

During his tenure in the White House, Biden has tried to keep his distance from the Justice Department and its multiple investigations into the former president. And Biden has repeatedly insisted that his administration has not let political motivations influence its decisions regarding those investigations into Trump.

But the comments on Tuesday from Biden – even though he quickly corrected himself – come as Vice President Kamala Harris – who three months ago replaced Biden atop the Democrats’ 2024 ticket – has tried to stop supporters at her rallies from chanting “lock him up” in reference to Trump.

“Lock her up” was a regular chant by Trump supporters during the former president’s 2016 campaign, as he criticized Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton as being corrupt.
