The crowd first booed Hillary Clinton and chanted "Lock her up!" which is a feature of virtually every single one of his rallies; and then randomly yelled "Lock them up!" during a break in his speech; and finally chanted "Lock them up!" in response to Trump accusing the FBI and Democrats of treason.

Now we're gonna have a second time, and we're gonna have another one, and then we'll drive them crazy, let me— Ready? [the crowd cheers]Donald Trump always telegraphs what he is planning to do, often under the auspices of a "joke."
And maybe if we really like it a lot, and if things keep going like they're going, we'll go and do what we have to do — we'll do a three and a four and a five! Watch — they'll have tomorrow "We knew he—" [waves hand and chuckles] I don't want to say it. [crowd laughs]
No, we're gonna have another one, and it's gonna be great, and, you know, one of the things we're talking about, the greatest, probably, I think, political slogan of all time is what you have on your hats: Make America Great Again.
This is not a joke. The President of the United States is suggesting that he will ignore the law on term limits and "do what we have to do" to continue to stay in office for as long as 20 years.
Impeachment hearings NOW.
