Donald Trump ‘Doesn’t Wish To’ Pursue Charges Against Hillary Cl
After all, Hillary Clinton won the *real* vote and should be the president-elect at this moment.
Trump had made Clinton’s use of a private email server while secretary of state and charges a crucial part of his campaign, charging that she had broken the law despite a decision by the Federal Bureau of Investigation not to press charges.
This shouldn’t come as a shock, but it is epically disappointing to Trump fans who chanted “lock her up!” at rallies because that is one promise they seemed to treat not as a metaphorical pledge, but as one they believed he would deliver on.
Two weeks after his surprise election victory over Clinton, Trump remained out of sight publicly; aides said no news conference is planned in the short-term.
“I would go ahead and let the President-elect speak for that directly”, he said. He told the Times, “I disavow and condemn them”.
A lot of complaining and wishing things were different isn’t constructive, especially when some people think they can destroy property because they don’t like the results of the election. Trump wrote in a second post.
It’s not the first time Coulter disagrees with Trump. The president-elect frequently refers to the paper as “failing”.
Earlier, adviser Kellyanne Conway strongly signalled to congressional Republicans that they should abandon their years of vigorous probes of Clinton’s email practices and actions at the time of the terror attacks in Benghazi, Libya. That was followed by Mr Trump pulling out. “Perhaps a new meeting will be set up with the @nytimes, ” he continued.
A group of academics, lawyers and data experts are also trying to persuade the Clinton’s team to join their efforts to investigate the results in three states to check if there was foreign computer hacking that manipulated the outcome.
His spokeswoman, Hope Hicks, later told reporters: “The meeting is taking place as planned”.
The statement comes only hours after Trump tweeted that he would not be meeting with the newspaper. He’s the president elect.
Trump won numerous states by relatively small margins, while Clinton, a former USA secretary of state who was looking to become the country’s first female president, piled up a huge vote count edge in California and NY. “He has various lawyers, accountants and advisers who tell him what he must do and what he can”, she told reporters.
Instead of striking a harmonious tone to build rapport following the election, Mr Trump was combative, participants said.
President-elect Donald Trump may be visiting with The New York Times after all. He says the White House has traditionally not unveiled details of calls that Obama has had when consulting former presidents, and that’s a precedent it wants to protect with President-elect Donald Trump.
A protective pool, as it is known, is considered necessary for disclosure of what the president is doing and transparency when big news breaks. “If it’s so important to the American people, I would go for it”.
On Monday, at Trump tower, he met with network anchors, news executives and correspondents and berated them for their coverage, according to sources.
