    Not only should Jeff Sessions NOT have said "Lock her up," he should have used this as a teaching opportunity to mentor his young audience. This is called responsible adult leadership. Here's an example.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrnRU3ocIH4 …

        Trump must have been pleased I am very disappointed in the youth if this is the mantra for 2020 Republicans will lose she's not running she's not under investigation she's not indicted so the Crooked Hillary theme can be turned around against him!

        Asking Jeff Sessions to be responsible is like asking Trump to stop saying No collusion.

        Truth matters. HRC is a criminal & does belong in jail because “felony”. Google it. And, to sum up, bc: - secret server outside US protocols - destroyed evidence of same - massive nonprofit & bribery fraud via her foundation The kids were correct. And Sessions was just honest.

        Thank you for saying this. Sessions is the Attorney General of the United States of America. Why didn’t he explain to those kids that we follow the rule of law in this country and that’s what makes us GREAT.

        Jeff Sessions is a Fascist pig who should be rotting in one of his prisons, not running a government department.

        I miss McCain. I’m happy he is doing well and appreciate his statements but it’s just not the same as having him in Washington.

        not sure that is such a great example. yes, he defends obama (which is admirable and something sorely lacking a decade later) but his response boils down to "no, he is not an Arab, he is a good person" which implies that somehow "Arab" and "Good Person" are contradictory.

        an actually good example would have been pointing out that a) the woman is factually wrong and b) even if she were not factually wrong, his family background is not what determines his character, his policies, his fitness for office, etc.

        even if that audience were appropriately chastised about Obama and recognized that, yes, he is a good person, they have also received a message that their bigotry is acceptable, as long as it is accurate.
