Crowd chants 'lock her up' at Trump rally in West Virginia
Source: The Hill
The crowd at President Trumps West Virginia rally broke into chants of lock her up on Tuesday night.
The chants were in response to GOP Senate candidate Patrick Morrisseys comments on former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, but came just hours after two of Trumps former allies were found guilty and pleaded guilty to crimes, respectively.
Morrissey criticized Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) for his praise of Clinton, saying that he called her warm, compassionate, engaging.
Can you actually believe that? Morrissey said, at which point the crowd began the chant. The crowd also chanted drain the swamp.

Hours after Trump's campaign manager is convicted and his personal attorney pleads guilty to conspiring with the President to violate campaign finance laws, folks attending a Trump rally demand that Hillary Clinton be thrown in jail.

(17,865 posts)When we just had Arlo our BC he would always position himself so that he could guard all three bedrooms. When we got Splash our Aussie/Sheltie she slept with our older daughter so Arlo took up just guarding my younger daughter and my wife and mine's bedroom. When the older daughter went to college, then Splash slept with the younger daughter and Arlo moved into our room. Now that my younger daughter works nights, both dogs sleep in our room.
Arlo will never let anyone get left behind when walking. He is especially careful of my young nieces and nephews and makes sure their are no stragglers.

But he told me there was a favorite saying in Baltimore, about West Virginia.
(I've never been there myself.)
He said "There is stupid, and there is WV stupid."
The OP is just one example, to me of this.

It's no coincidence that WV has the highest rate of opioid overdoses (per capita) in the U.S. and went for Donald Trump in the 2016 election.

(14,176 posts)Funny how the deplorables have reinterpreted the meaning.
Its had a few interpretations, but the most common accepted one was coined by Ronald Reagan about reducing the bureaucrats and general size of government. Or from a more liberal view, draining the lobbyist swamp of interests to only those rich enough to pay to play.
The deplorables have been so conditioned now for years for it to mean that the swamp people are in fact all the Democrats. They are to be 'drained', and then everything will be great again.
