I’m sorry, he said what he really meant the first time. We have learned how this guy works.

[mynameisnobodysometimeseve]

Explain politically lock him up. Never heard that expression before.

[allenallen]

BS! They are trying literally! Then wants to back track. No one ever used that language “politically” before !

[PaineStakingTruth]

Don’t say anything wrong or she’ll throw a fit and storm out again!

[johnlerner]

Men with Balls vote TRUMP - Women with Balls vote for Harris and Open Borders! USA USA USA

[genelusk]

She’s right. He was talking about locking him up politically. As in locking up their political opponent.

[DarrenVosper-gdkw]

She said we are all stupid and they are the intelligent ones

[whippetscheck]

Sure because "locking someone out" is such a common expression especially when it comes to politics, of course that's what JB meant.

[PANISANGELICUS-ek]

Why Lie About It??? The Whole World Heard Him Say..Lock Him Up. 😂

[ThomasMitchell-kryy]

This person is delusional she needs to be locked up

[diannbajewicz]

You can't say we got to lock him this administration is evil

[AMERFIN]

She said lock him out, that's not what Brandon said.

[PaineStakingTruth]

Uh oh! Auntie Karine is gonna get mad!

[CrimsonBurner]

I think she would make an excellent kindergarden teacher instead of a PR person. The way she can speak so confidently and condescending to the reporters really stuns me. I mean if you listen to her it's like" I'm the mouthpiece of the presidant, therefore every word I say are his words. Every explanation I give in response to surprise questions are also his words, not my understanding or interpretation. So you can't call me out on it"

Hopefully the next president fires her.
