Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday stopped her campaign rally audience in Wisconsin from taunting her Republican 2024 election rival Donald Trump , who is a convicted felon, with the chant, Lock him up.

Well, hold on, hold on, hold on, said the Democratic nominee.

You know what? Here, hold on. Heres the thing, the courts are going to handle that part of it. Were going to beat him in November, Harris explained, earning massive applause.

Were going to beat him in November. Well beat him in November, well handle that, she added.

Trump was found guilty in May on all 34 counts in his New York hush money trial. He is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 18.

The lock him up chant is a spin on Trump supporters cries of lock her up during the 2016 election, which called for the jailing of his then-Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.

Also on Wednesday, at a rally in Detroit, Harris tackled hecklers shouting what CNN reported sounded like pro-Palestinian messages.

You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise Im speaking, said Harris, prompting massive cheers.
