Economist and New York Times op-ed columnist Paul Krugman suggested Friday evening that “thousands of journalists” will end up imprisoned because of the administration or President Donald Trump goes to jail.
A formal impeachment inquiry was launched Tuesday after news that Trump had asked Ukrainian officials to look into Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter regarding business dealings in the country. The transcript of this phone call was held in a special computer system for sensitive calls, according to the NYT.
The White House restricted access to other phone calls between Trump and foreign leaders, CNN reported Friday evening. Following this news, Krugman tweeted that there seemed to be “two possible outcomes.”
“Trump and a number of others end up in jail, or thousands of journalists end up in prison camps,” Krugman, a Nobel Prize winner, suggested.
Krugman did not follow up his tweet with reasons as to how “thousands of journalists” would become imprisoned if Trump doesn’t spend time behind bars.
Turkey, China and Egypt are responsible for more than half of all jailed journalists, a 2018 Forbes article reported. The report is based on data collected from the Committee to Protect Journalists, which noted that zero journalists were jailed in the U.S.
Trump spoke on the phone to Russian President Vladimir Putin and Saudi Arabian Prince Mohammad Bin Salman Al Saud, CNN host Erin Burnett said Friday on “Erin Burnett OutFront.”

This is so over the top that I would not be surprised to learn they are working for communists China.
If Krugman doesn’t lay off drinking he’ll continue to make stupid statements like this.
And.....?
And.....?
And..?
What if that were his most sober, intellectual peak? We’re talking a special kind of stoooopid.
Geez, it’s way too early to start talking about prison camps for journalists. There is a lot of work to be done before that.
Just when you think that the left can’t get any crazier, it does. The claim that Trump is going to jail thousands of journalists or set up concentration camps for gays and blacks is so absurd that it doesn’t even merit a rebuttal.
Of course you and you lying crap-weasel communist stenographers will get locked up for seditious conspiracy.
You can save yourself now. It’s a simple kit: one red scarf and a doorknob. Some assembly required.
And the Stock Market will crash if Trump is elected.
This man needs help so badly.
So if the 1,000 police lie on the witness stand wrecking the system, that’s ok?
If charged with willfully misleading the American public or violating the public trust, I could see the number being much higher. I think more people trust a used car salesman than a ‘journalist’ now.
NAW..they just get taken out and lined up against a wall and shot like the snakes they are.
So close to Hillary-Speak I could swear she said that, not Krugman.
get ready to be not surprised then
You bet your sweet ass Paulie!! We got you now. I hope they hang you.
If there was ever any doubt that Krugman is not a raving lunatic this article demolishes that impression forever
I suspect thousands of journalists will be forced to get real jobs soon.
thousands of journalists will end up imprisoned”
Right up there with the world will end in 12 years.
