During a rally in Iowa tonight, President Donald Trump attacked Democrat Senator Dianne Feinstein of California for her role in Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation battle, which caused the crowd to start chanting "lock her up."

"How about Sen. Feinstein?" Trump said after mentioning a number of Democratic senators who opposed Kavanaugh. "That's another beaut -- that's a beauty!" The president proceeded to jokingly ask Feinstein, "Did you leak the documents?"

He then did a nervous, erratic impression of Feinstein denying leaking Christine Blasey Ford's allegations against Kavanaugh.

That mockery triggered an eruption of "lock her up" chants that the president chuckled at.

The willingness to lock up political adversaries who haven't broken any laws is absolutely appalling. They have a complete inability to imagine if the shoe was on the other foot. Can you imagine their reaction if a Democrat holding a rally chanted "lock her up" about a female Republican?

Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi so they find yet another woman to use for their "War on Women™".

They are truly the purveyors of the "witch hunt" of old.
