GOP Senator: ‘Jumping the Shark’ to Call for Hillary to Be Jailed

There has been a lot of talk at the Republican National Convention this week about jailing Hillary Clinton. Speakers have alluded to it, and “Lock her up!” has been a major chant the past two days.

Well, Republican Senator Jeff Flake––who is not at the convention this week––criticized the people in his party making those calls:

.@HillaryClinton now belongs in prison? C'mon. We can make the case that she shouldn't be elected without jumping the shark.

I mean, if you’re gonna jump the shark, you might as well have someone from Happy Days help you do it.
