A former aide to Roger Stone, a longtime friend and former advisor to Donald Trump, appeared to indicate at a conference of QAnon supporters over the weekend that Hillary Clinton should be hanged.

Referring to Clinton as a "godawful woman who shall not be named," on Saturday, Jason Sullivan, Stone's ex-social media advisor, made a noose gesture with his hand onstage. His action was received with applause from the crowd.

A former attorney for Sullivan did not immediately return Insider's request for comment.

Clinton was Trump's Democratic opponent in the 2016 presidential election. Trump frequently berated her using misogynistic remarks and has continued to do so years after he won the election.

Even while campaigning for the 2020 election, Trump lambasted Clinton, taking every opportunity in front of a crowd to target her.

"We went through the greatest witch hunt in political history," Trump told supporters at his official campaign launch in Orlando, Florida, in June 2019. "The only collusion was committed by the Democrats, the fake news media, and their operatives, and the people who funded the phony dossier: crooked Hillary Clinton and the DNC."

In response to Trump's vitriolic behavior and remarks, "lock her up" chants often broke out among his supporters.

The For God & Country Patriot Roundup was a four-day event that took place over the weekend in Dallas. Its main attraction was Michael Flynn, the former national security advisor.

While on stage, Flynn suggested to a crowd that there should be a coup in the United States that mirrors the one that took place in Myanmar earlier this year.

Hundreds have died since the military overthrew the democratically elected government there.

Flynn in 2017 pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI regarding Russian interference in the 2016 election. He received a pardon from Trump last year.
