A West Virginia lawmaker said Saturday he regrets tweeting that Hillary Clinton should be "hung on the mall in Washington, D.C.," as punishment for her use of a private email server as secretary of state.

But Michael Folk, a member of West Virginia's House of Delegates, said he still believes Clinton should be tried for treason after an FBI investigation determined she handled classified information on the server. The FBI recommended earlier this month that charges not be brought against Clinton or her staffers.

"I do think she should be tried and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law," Folk told CNN Saturday. But as for being hanged, he said, "No, my gosh. That was the hyperbole in the statement."

On Friday, Folk had tweeted, "@HillaryClinton You should be tried for treason, murder, and crimes against the US Constitution... then hung on the Mall in Washington, DC."

Geezuz, dude..LOL. These people are straight up lunatics.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Lol I didn't mean she should be hung when I said she should be hung.

Good thing he only called for the execution of the Democratic nominee and not the nebulous concept of the police... otherwise dude would be in jail instead of getting to say he was being hyperbolic

 

[Arkos]

"Oh my gosh no, I didn't mean that, I just said it."

I want to compile a image of all the deplorable shit said by GOP and spam it every time I see someone say that. But I'm too lazy and it would fall on deaf ears anyway.
