It was a terrible idea to chant "Lock her up!" because Clinton hadn't actually committed a crime. Meanwhile, money laundering, collusion with a foreign power, and possibly treason are major crimes. And the idea that the country should just let the guy get away with it because he was elected president is asinine.

Doesn't mean he shouldn't be prosecuted if necessary. By either federal and/or state courts.

That's a good start. But if there's evidence that he did all that other shit, prosecute him to fullest extent of the law.
