REPORT: “Lock Her Up” Chant Drowns Out Jeff Sessions Speech During George Washington University Visit

WASHINGTON, DC. (THECOUNT) — Jeff Sessions was delivering a speech to Turning Point USA’s High School Leadership Summit at George Washington University when it was spontaneously interrupted by the familiar Trump campaign era chant, “Lock Her Up!”

“Well I can tell this group isn’t going to have to have Play-Doh when you get attacked in college and you get involved in a debate,” Sessions told the crowd attending Turning Point USA’s High School Leadership Summit at George Washington University.

“I like this bunch, I gotta tell you. You’re not going to be backing down. Go get ’em. Go get ’em,” Sessions said during the speech.

Then chants of “Lock her up” broke out.

“Lock her up,” Sessions said, chuckling at the brief interruption from the audience as the chant then grew louder and louder.

“I heard that a long time over the last campaign,” he said before continuing with his prepared speech.

“Lock her up” was a staple heard at Trump 2016 campaign rallies in reference to Clinton’s use of a private email server when she was secretary of state and Trump’s insistence that she be jailed for the offense. source
