Trump’s claim that he never called fallen American soldiers both “losers” and “suckers” came shortly after he also denied ever calling for Hillary Clinton to be “locked up” during the 2016 presidential election.

“And I said, wouldn’t it be terrible if I locked up the wife of the president of the United States, former, and locked up the former secretary of state?” Trump continued. “It’s a terrible thing.”

“I thought it was terrible,” he repeated later on during his interview with Fox News last week. “I’d make a speech, everyone would say: Lock her up, lock her up, lock her up.”
