Donald Trump said during his reelection campaign kickoff rally Tuesday night that he would get the “electric chair” if he deleted even one email to first lady Melania Trump.

Trump made the statement while discussing emails from a private server used by his 2016 presidential rival Hillary Clinton from her time serving as secretary of State that were later deleted.

“Can you imagine, if I received a subpoena?” he said in Orlando.

“If I got a subpoena for emails, if I deleted one email, like a love note to Melania, it’s the electric chair for Trump,” he said.

Trump, who has criticized Clinton over the issue going back to the 2016 presidential race, suggested the emails might still be found “somewhere deep in the State Department.”

“We now have a great attorney general. Let’s see what happens,” he said.

The Trump administration has defied several subpoenas of its own in recent weeks, including a demand for Trump’s tax returns.
