Gregory Chang, a 28-year-old Asian man was taken into police custody and held for over three hours after he made a Donald Trump joke while out at a Williamsburg bar Saturday afternoon.
Chang, a U.S. History public school teacher, was drinking with a friend at Roebling Sporting Club in Williamsburg when he said, “If Donald Trump becomes president, I would pursue an early retirement – life in federal prison. Lucky for me I know the two parts of the country a President Trump would spend most of his time in: the Beltway and the City,” detailed Gothamist,who first reported this story.
Someone at the bar over heard Chang’s joke and called the cops. Soon after police arrived at the bar on North 8th Street near Roebling Street, asked Chang to step outside and then transported him to the 94th Precinct for further questioning.
According to reports, Chang was detained for about three hours before the Secret Service showed up to and asked him to repeat what he said, at which point he again told his joke.

After about an hour of intense questioning, Chang was authorized to be released but first had to sign documents allowing police to investigate his medical records and talk to his therapist to see if he was a mental health threat.
Chang was never formally arrested, therefore none of this has been documented with the police.
“At the end of the day this was a waste of everyone’s fucking time. My time, the police, Secret Service, because of a hearsay accusation that has no basis in anything, really,” Chang told Gothamist.
