Hillary Clinton's Reaction to Donald Trump 'Lock Him Up' Chant Goes Viral (1.5M views)

Hillary Clinton's reaction to chants of "lock him up" during her speech at the Democratic National Convention has gone viral on social media.

Clinton was mocking former President Donald Trump's legal challenges during her speech on Monday night when the crowd began chanting "lock him up"—echoing the chants that Trump's supporters had directed at the former secretary of state as she ran for president against Trump in 2016.

"Donald Trump fell asleep at his own trial and when he woke up, he made his own kind of history: the first person to run for president with 34 felony convictions," Clinton said, prompting the crowd to start chanting.

Clinton tried to talk over the crowd, but then smiled and nodded as it grew louder.

There were many who hit the balls out of the park last night and she did this with saying nothing - just smiling.
