Retiring President Biden stunned listeners Tuesday by calling for his predecessor Donald Trump to be jailed — 14 days before the presidential election in which Trump is the Republican nominee.

“If I said this 5 years ago, you’d lock me up: we gotta lock him up,” Biden, 81, said during a visit to a Democratic campaign office in New Hampshire.

After a four-second pause during which his audience enthusiastically applauded, Biden added: “politically… lock him out, that’s what we’ve got to do.”

The president and his aides typically refrain from commenting on the four pending criminal cases against Trump, who contends that a quartet of local and federal indictments last year were politically motivated to aid Biden’s then-re-election campaign.

Trump 78, was convicted in May by a Manhattan jury of 34 criminal counts of falsifying business records to conceal 2016 hush money payments. His sentencing in that case, which was brought by District Attorney Alvin Bragg, an elected Democrat, is scheduled for Nov. 26.

Trump faces pending federal and state charges in Georgia related to challenging his 2020 election defeat by Biden. And federal prosecutors are attempting to revive another case accusing Trump of mishandling classified records, which a judge dismissed in July.
