MAGA fans chanted ‘daddy’s home’ as Donald Trump took the stage and tore into President Joe Biden over his recent remarks that he should be behind bars with less than two weeks to the election.
‘We gotta lock him up’, the 81-year-old president said at event in New Hampshire on Tuesday before correcting himself to say ‘we need to politically lock him up.’
The remark sparked outrage from Republicans who say the many criminal cases against Trump are politically motivated by the far-left and Biden’s Justice Department.
Then Republican nominee slammed Biden before tens of thousands of his supporters at a rally in Duluth, Georgia, calling it ‘illegal’ and ‘election interference.’
‘He can’t say that,’ Trump said to his adoring fan base.
‘But I’ve been telling you that for – it’s election interference, this is all it is,’ he continued. ‘He said, ‘We’ve got to lock him up.’ This is illegal and should cause cases.’
Trump was also greeted early in his remarks with a new MAGA-flavored chant coined by conservative commentator Tucker Carlson: ‘Daddy’s home.’

Trump’s team pulled out all the stops at the swing state event on Wednesday with a stacked line-up of guests as the 2024 hopeful made one of his final pleas to Atlanta-area voters with just 13 days left until Election Day.
The former president’s crowd was quick to embrace a new slogan that was debuted in the pre-programming by renowned conservative media personality Tucker Carlson.
The ex-Fox News host compared Trump to a ‘pissed’ father who needed to win the 2024 election so he could ‘come home’ and ‘spank’ his disobedient children – who in this case are the Democrats.
‘If you allow people to get away with things that are completely over the top and outrageous… you’re going to get more of it,’ Carlson said at the rally co-hosted by conservative nonprofit Turning Point Action.
Just a few minutes into Trump’s hour-and-a-half remarks, the crowd chanted: ‘Daddy’s home.’

Trump’s campaign pulled out all the stops to persuade swing states voters to cast their ballot for him.
Trump walked out on stage on Wednesday to a light show and sparkler welcome and an orchestra-sounding version of his intro song God Bless the USA.
Georgia is one of the seven battleground swing states Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are furiously courting in the count down.
Clinching Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin is essential to winning the White House in 2024.
The outcome in nearly every other state is already presumed known based on previous election results and more definitive polling figures.
An absolutely stacked line-up of speakers got the pro-MAGA crowd hyped up for the former president’s arrival at Gas South Arena in a suburb about 30 miles from the center of Atlanta.
This included Carlson, as well as Robert F. Kennedy Jr., country music star Jason Aldean, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Democrat-turned-Republican former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard.

Carlson was by far the most popular of the pre-program remarks, receiving a minute-long standing ovation.
‘If you allow your two-year-old to smear the contents of his diapers on the wall of your living room, and you do nothing about it. If you allow your 14-year-old to light a joint at the breakfast table. If you allow your hormone-addled 15-year-old daughter to like, slam the door of her bedroom and give you the finger, you’re going to get more of it. And those kids are going to wind up in rehab,’ Carlson said in a confusing rant meant to compared the state of the country under Democrats to how parents handle their children.
‘It’s not good for you and it’s not good for them. No,’ the media personality added. ‘There has to be a point at which dad comes home. Yeah, that’s right. Dad comes home. And he’s pissed. Dad is pissed. He’s not vengeful, he loves his children – disobedient as they may be – he loves them. Because they’re his children, they live in his house.’
‘But he’s very disappointed in their behavior and he’s going to have to let them know. ‘Get to your room right now and think about what you did,’ he continued.
‘And when dad gets home, you know what he says? ‘You’ve been a bad girl. You’ve been a bad little girl and you’re getting a vigorous spanking, right now. And no, it’s not going to hurt me more than it hurts you, no it’s not. I’m not going to lie. It’s going to hurt you a lot more than it hurts me. And you earned this, you’re getting vigorous spanking because you’ve been a bad girl.’
‘And it has to be this way,’ he concluded the riff.
The rally was co-hosted by Trump’s campaign and Turning Point Action, an organization created by MAGA world icon Charlie Kirk that focuses on getting young people involved in the conservative political movement.
Trump brought out the big guns for his rally to inject more ‘star power’ into his campaign as big names like Barack Obama and rapper Eminem stump for Vice President Kamala Harris.

Pre-program speakers in Duluth included: RFK Jr., Rep. Greene, Carlson, former Rep. Gabbard, Ben Carson, Peter Navarro, Rep. Mike Collins, conservative commentator Benny Johnson and anti-trans athletes advocate Riley Gaines.
Kirk had the final remarks before Trump took the stage at Gas South Arena in Duluth.
The arena has a capacity of 13,100 spectators for sporting events – but a few thousands more seats were added to the floor of the arena for Trumps’ rally.
Just a few dozen seats in the arena remained vacant in areas that did not have a view of the stage.

Voters in Georgia have already started casting their ballots at early voting locations around the state. People were able to vote in person or fill out their ballots at home and drop them off at the same locations.
Early voting began October 15 and runs through November 1.
The polls will then open back up on Tuesday, November 5 for Election Day.
Many voters in Buckhead, Georgia, on Wednesday told DailyMail.com that they think early voting is an extremely important initiative because it encourages a higher level of involvement in elections.
‘Well, for me, I’m on call on Election Day,’ an OB-GYN who voted at Buckhead Public Library on Wednesday said.
‘I’d be delivering babies at the hospital down the street on election day, so I wouldn’t be able to vote because I have to do my job,’ Cantey Doga, 35, added. ‘So I’m very happy to be able to vote early on my day off.’
Kimberly Graham, a technical writer in Atlanta, said: ‘For one, people have to work. You can’t always get off on the designated day for voting.’
‘So giving us the opportunity to come in when we can, when our schedules permit, I think is beneficial to everyone, giving everyone the opportunity,’ the Harris voter added.
