Stephen Colbert’s Audience Goes Wild With 1 Brutally Honest Message For Trump

“I didn’t say ‘lock her up,’ but the people would all say, ‘lock her up, lock her up,’” Trump falsely claimed.

“The people said ‘lock her up?’” an incredulous Colbert fired back on Monday. “That was your whole campaign! Stop it, we remember. We were there.”

Colbert rolled clips of Trump calling on Clinton to be locked up.

“I think it would be tough for the public to take,” Trump said.

“It would be tough for the public?” Colbert said. “Actually, I happen to have a large number of the public here. Hey public, what do you all think of Trump going to jail?”

The audience cheered for nearly 30 seconds, with some standing and many chanting “Lock him up!”

“Ladies and gentlemen, there you have it,” Colbert said. “I didn’t say, ‘Lock him up.’ The people said it.”
