In a bizarre pre-election mumbling incident at a campaign stop in Concord, N.H., Joe Biden called for Donald Trump to be sent to prison. "If I said this five years ago, you'd lock me up," Biden, 81, joked to the crowd. "We've gotta lock him up." The small crowd in the room started enthusiastically applauding as Biden paused for four seconds, after which he continued to speak while backtracking the statement he had just made. "Politically lock him up – lock him out; that's what we've got to do," Biden then clarified. The Donald Trump campaign responded to Biden's statements by accusing him of making a Freudian slip. It is clear, after all, that Democrats as a whole want Trump thrown in prison because of the threat he represents to their power. "Joe Biden just admitted the truth: he and Kamala's plan all along has been to politically persecute their opponent President Trump because they can’t beat him fair and square," said Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt. "The Harris-Biden Admin is the real threat to democracy. We call on Kamala Harris to condemn Joe Biden's disgraceful remark."

Trump's Stormy Daniels case sentencing scheduled for November 26

Someone close to Biden who spoke on his behalf told the media that the president was not suggesting that the former president should be put in jail. It was supposedly just a misstatement having nothing to do with the four pending criminal cases against Trump. Trump continues to claim that both the local and federal indictments that have come his way are all politically motivated to try to keep Democrats in control of the White House. "I think he's running to stay out of jail," Biden said at a campaign appearance in Pennsylvania about a week before this latest "Freudian slip." Back in May, Trump, 78, was convicted by a Manhattan jury of 34 criminal counts of falsifying business records in order to conceal hush money payments he made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the final weeks of his 2016 campaign. Trump's sentencing in that case is scheduled for November 26. Trump also faces pending charges both federally and at the state level in Georgia relating to the challenges he made in that state concerning his 2020 election defeat to Biden. There is much controversy over the issue of voter fraud with Trump claiming he was cheated and the system claiming he lost fair and square. Then there is the case in South Florida that federal prosecutors are trying to resurrect that accuses Trump of mishandling classified records. A judge dismissed that case back in July, but some people in power want to pursue it further to go after Trump from another angle. Should Trump win the 2024 election, his new administration's Justice Department is likely to put the two federal cases against him on the backburner. This is a big reason why Democrats do not want him to win and cannot allow him to win because they know they will have nothing left once he is back in power. RealClearPolitics is saying that Trump is maintaining a marginal lead over Kamala Harris all across the board in the swing states, though when accounting for margins of error it is still a pretty close call. Anything could happen, in other words, on November 5. Kamala, 60, is treading lightly with the issue of Trump going to jail. At her rallies whenever attendees start chanting "Lock him up!" Kamala usually responds by telling her supporters that it is up to the court system to make that determination. The latest news about the election can be found at Rigged.news.
