Hillary Clinton talks Trump impeachment inquiry as audience chants 'lock him up'
It must be a refreshing change for Hillary Clinton to hear a different version of a chant she's far too familiar with. Instead of "lock her up," the audience on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert gave their chant a small edit.
"Lock him up," they said.
It was all Colbert's fault, who had asked Clinton, "Is it time to — dare I say — lock him up?" in reference to the impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump which launched last week in the House of Representatives.
"I believe strongly that this particular incident has had such a huge impact because we've known for a long time that he [Trump] was a corrupt businessman who cheated people, and we've known that he and his campaign asked for aid from Russia, we've known that," said Clinton.
"But to see him in the office of the president putting his own personal and political interest ahead of the national security of our country just pierced through whatever confusion or denial people had. And, at that point, Speaker Pelosi rightly said this is something we have to investigate and that's what's going on."
