Supporters at President Trump’s North Dakota rally on Wednesday revived chants of “lock her up” after the president claimed former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton has yet to move on from the 2016 election.
Speaking at a rally in Fargo, Trump brought up his Democratic opponent once again, lamenting that she has not gotten over her defeat.
“Our opponent. Our wonderful opponent,” Trump told the crowd. “When is she going to get over it?”

The crowd then quickly broke into chants of “lock her up,” a staple of Trump’s 2016 campaign rallies.
“You know it is pretty amazing. Point after point, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, oh she’s OK,” Trump said, referring to the FBI investigation into Clinton’s use of an email server that led to no criminal charges.
“And then they go after us for a Russian hoax. Isn’t it incredible when you talk about a double standard? And nobody even looks at her,” Trump continued.
Trump was referencing special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election, which he frequently derides as a “witch hunt” and a “hoax.”
Mueller has thus far indicted or obtained guilty pleas from four former Trump associates, and 13 Russian nationals.
