      Or imprisonment.

      Point is, that’s not what the quote directly said. And that’s what distinguishes journalism, and tabloids like DailyBeast (or talking heads/“analysis” like Fox News). Hence, every actual news outlet on this topic went with a factual headline, and quoted Trump directly instead of making a jump.

      This distinction is very important to me. Ragebait like DailyBeast is why Trump is in power and the world sucks now, because it works.
