ORLANDO, Fla. — President-elect Donald Trump tried to tamp down supporters calling to "lock up" Hillary Clinton by telling them while they were "vicious" before the election, "now you're laid back, you're cool, you're mellow."
But his words seemed not to have their intended effect — a supporter threw an empty water bottle at a reporter after the event ended.
Trump made the comments after the supporters in the crowd began a typical "lock her up!" chant in reference to Hillary Clinton. "Oh, that's so, so terrible," Trump said.
"So here's what I noticed: Four weeks ago, just prior to, and always prior to, you people were vicious, violent, screaming, 'Where's the wall? We want the wall!' Screaming, 'Prison! Prison! Lock her up!,'" Trumps said. "I mean, you are going crazy."
But now, he said, "it's much different."
"Now you're laid back, you're cool, you're mellow, right? You're basking in the glow of victory!" Trump said.
It was an implicit acknowledgement Trump has fueled his supporters' anger and frustration to win the election, in part by provoking their opposition to Democrat Hillary Clinton. "Lock her up!" was one of his most popular chants and could be heard at nearly every one of his campaign rallies.
