Important Takeaways:
- Haley, a 2024 Republican presidential candidate, had suggested in a July interview with Fox News that the 80-year-old Biden, because of his old age, could die in office.
- In response, Christopher queried how conservatives would react if Biden said Trump could die in prison if he potentially goes to jail for one or more of his indictments. But Obeidallah went a step further – contending that Trump “must” die in prison.
- “I think Donald Trump must die in prison because – I don’t care if he was 45 years old. You should get life in prison if you attempt a coup, and there should be no chance of parole,” Obeidallah told Christopher, “I don’t care who it is.”
- Obeidallah said he was so impassioned about the prospects of a life sentence for Trump because it would send a message to the public that you cannot “chip away” at the “democratic republic” of the United States.
- He has subsequently insisted that he was not calling for Trump to be murdered but for there to be such a lengthy prison sentence that he passes of natural causes.
