Biden calls for Trump to be 'politically' locked up at New Hampshire event

President Biden on Tuesday called for his predecessor to be “politically” locked up during an event in New Hampshire’s capital, a phrase similar to former President Trump’s 2016 call to imprison Hillary Clinton, then his Democratic opponent.

Biden was in Concord to tout his health care and prescription drug cost legislation when he said Trump wants to eliminate his political adversaries and detractors.

“He thinks he has a version of the Supreme Court ruling on immunity to be able to, if need be, if it was the case, to actually eliminate, physically eliminate, shoot, kill someone who is, he believes to be a threat to him,” Biden told his supporters.

“I know this sounds bizarre. It sounds like if I said this five years ago, you’d lock me up,” he added. “We got to lock him up. Politically lock him up. Lock him out. That’s what we have to do.”

Democrats, including Vice President Kamala Harris have repeatedly warned voters that Trump poses a threat to democracy. Trump’s supporters have blamed similar rhetoric for the two failed assassination attempts on his life.

Fox News Digital has reached out to the Trump campaign.

Biden’s remarks were similar to Trump’s often-repeated plea during his 2016 campaign against Clinton to imprison her.

“Lock her up! Lock her up!” chants became commonplace at Trump rallies.

Biden also said that Trump-supporting Republicans have anti-democratic attitudes.

“We’re dealing with a totally different breed of cat now,” he said. “That was— the civil rights era was terrible. But we got a group now that is just literally, and I’m not one that is prone to hyperbole, but we have a a group running the MAGA Republicans who are have an anti-democratic attitude toward the way the Constitution functions.”

Benefit held Maine man badly injured after getting hit on I-95 while shielding teen

MEDFORD, Maine (WGME) — A community is rallying and raising money for a Medford man who is fighting for his life after being hit by a vehicle on I-95 while helping a teen driver.

Scott Thibodeau’s family said he is on a breathing tube and badly injured after he was hit by a car on I-95 last month.

Police said he and his wife stopped to help another driver who went off the road in Veazie.

Thibodeau and the teen driver were outside their vehicles when police said another driver hit them.

Police said Thibodeau put himself in front of the teen to shield her and suffered worse injuries.

Thibodeau is active in the automotive community in his area and on Sunday, they held a fundraiser to help pay his medical bills.

“Scott being such a big part of the automotive community and the mud runs and everything, it was something kind of like we needed to do,” said organizer Nick Souza.

“The amount of appreciation is never something I’ll be able to repay, so thank you is the best I’ve got,” said Janis Thibodeau, Scott’s wife.

Thibodeau just celebrated his 55th birthday from the ICE. His wife says his road to recovery will be long and uncertain.

A Facebook page has been created to document Thibodeau’s healing journey. A GoFundMe has been set up to help Thibodeau’s family.
