Dingell, 70, worried openly that Trump might end up lumping her in with "Muslims and Arabs" when he decides that the time is right for her and the others to "be tossed in an internment camp."
Taken aback by the seriousness of her speculation, Tapper questioned Dingell about these "internment camps" she thinks are coming for her once Trump gets reinstalled into the White House.
"He has talked about internment camps," Dingell responded to Tapper about Trump. "You may have to visit me in one."
"I get worried enough when he talks about what he's going to do to his political enemies, but he has talked about them in this with different groups of people."

It must be another case of projection by a Democrat in the media since it is primarily leftists who have brought up throwing their political opposition into the gulags.
Dingell is worried that Trump is coming after her, but what about all the people she and her fellow Democrats have tried to go after for political persecution, including the former president himself?
"Internment camps? No. Mental hospital? Yes," someone wrote in a comment on YouTube about Dingell's fears.
"She's probably better served spending time in a psychiatrist's office instead of spewing nonsense on national television," wrote another about the embarrassment of watching Dingell humiliate herself on cable news.
The other possibility is that Kamala Harris gets installed and starts throwing Republicans into gulags, which means Dingell has nothing to worry about since she is a Democrat.
"Hopefully the useless leftist mobs will be deprogrammed in those FEMA camps set up for We the People," someone else wrote. "Those who keep their left-minded ways can be deported."
It seems clear, speculated another, that Dingell must have some really nasty skeletons in the closet if she is so visibly shaken by the possibility of another Trump term in the White House.
"The level of unhinged, insufferable takes on Trump are insane," wrote another. "He's already been president so you'd think he would have already built internment camps if that was his plan."
"If you didn't break the law, what worries should you have?" asked another of Dingell directly.
"You don't need to break the law to be put in an internment camp," responded someone else. "Internment camps are places where people are imprisoned, usually in large groups, without charges or intent to file charges."
"I think she is guilty of something – that's why she acts this way," said another. "Maybe she had a hand in bringing red flag countries' illegal migrants here, because if not, she'd have nothing to fear."
Independent journalist Ben Bartee theorizes that everything Democrats like Dingell worry about concerning Trump is exactly what they themselves want to do to their political opponents, which means they are all projecting.
"I recently half-endorsed a theory – which is not my own, which others came up with before me – that some metaphysical law requires Democrats accuse Trump of doing whatever nefarious ******** they, in fact, commit," he wrote for The Daily Bell.
"Lots of people out there are understandably apathetic or jaded about the election and the prospects that any substantial improvements would accrue from a Trump presidency – but consider, perhaps, how far these criminals might accelerate their tyranny if given another four years."
