Biden Takes Aim at Trump, Walks Back ‘Lock Him Up’ Comment
President Joe Biden stirred controversy by stating, “We got to lock [Trump] up” during a rally in New Hampshire. While the comment was quickly clarified as political rhetoric, it underscores the intensifying rivalry between Biden and Trump ahead of the November election. Biden's comment echoes Trump’s infamous 2016 call to “lock her up,” targeting Hillary Clinton. Biden's remarks reflect the Democratic Party's concerns about the risks posed by Trump’s return to power, with Biden framing the election as a battle for the soul of American democracy. While some within the party cheered the statement, others, like Vice President Kamala Harris, downplayed it, preferring to focus on policy issues. Biden’s speech also touched on concerns raised by world leaders, who fear Trump's return would damage global democracy. The heated exchange illustrates the charged political atmosphere as both sides prepare for a tight election.
