After Joe wins the election, do you think he should bring charges against Trump for misdeeds in office?
Fact check: Fake Trump quote about ending up in prison if Biden wins had its origin in satire
A claim that President Donald Trump stated he would go to prison if Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden wins the election appears to be a satirical take on current events.
Facebook user Warren Lynch posted to the claim to his account on Aug. 12.
"'If you elect Joe Biden, I will go to prison.'-Donald Trump, today," the post reads.
Lynch told USA TODAY in a Facebook message that the claim was, "just a rumor that was funny."
"He will go to jail, tho," he added in reference to Trump.
