JUST IN: Trump has no problem if James Comey, John Brennan arrested for Russiagate

"So James Comey and John Brennan, would you be comfortable seeing them handcuffed and arrested live on TV?" the Daily Caller's Reagan Reese asked Trump when the two were discussing Russiagate.

"Would not bother me at all," Trump replied.

"Do you think it’s a possibility?" Reese asked.

"See, I wouldn’t have answered that question that way four years ago. Do you understand that? I wouldn’t. Because, well, Hillary’s a good example. We had Hillary cold. I didn’t want to see that. I didn’t want the, you know, the wife of a president, to go to jail, but she was stone cold guilty of things. And if you remember, at the, at the big rallies, I’d say, ‘Alright, take it easy.’ You know, they’d all say, ‘Lock her up. Lock her up.’ After we won, before I won, just, they could do whatever they wanted. After I won – yeah, I was very gracious. And I assumed that, you know, I was a president, we had a great first term, first, not like this one, though," the president said.

When Trump was asked generally about potential arrests, not limited to Comey or Brennan, the president said, "I don’t know if there’s going to be. There should be. What they did is a disgrace. They cheated, they lied, they did so many bad things, evil things that were so bad for the country, and because they did something to me that should have never been done, nobody thought they’d ever do that. Actually, when I left, nobody thought that would happen."

He then said that those involved with Russiagate were "bad people" in the Obama administration. "They’re the ones that committed all the crimes. We didn’t commit crimes. They committed all the crimes, there should be, I can’t tell you whether or not because I really I don’t have to stay uninvolved. I’m allowed to stay involved, but I purposely don’t get involved. I can say that they should be arrested," he added.

Gabbard released several documents in July and accused officials in the Obama administration of engaging in a "treasonous conspiracy" to undermine Trump before he came into office and painting him as being connected to Russia. The FBI has reportedly launched probes into both Comey as well as Brennan related to the Russia collusion hoax.
