Frankly I was surprised to see her concede to Trump that night. I figured she'd have her lawyers swarming all over the country, contesting every close state, dragging this out days or weeks. When she refused to speak to her supporters at the Javits Center and sent Podesta out there to send them home so that we could "count every vote" - that was the direction we were heading in.

Something dramatic happened during that hour between when Podesta was sent out to the Javits stage and when Huma Weiner made that phone call to Donald Trump. Some kind of deal was made between the Trump and Clinton camps in my opinion. Trump himself may have tipped us off when he started his victory speech by saying "Sorry to keep you waiting - complicated business".

Maybe we'll find out someday or maybe we will never know.

Perhaps the revelation that Trump does not intend to prosecute Hillary is the deal. The 2 week delay was to not give the impression of a quid pro quo.

I suspect Hillary's punishment will come from those who dumped MILLIONS into that bogus foundation and got nothing in return. Scenes from "No Country For Old Men" keep coming to mind.

“Maybe we’ll find out some day” came yesterday. She concedes on the promise of no prosecution.

Having lived through the nightmare of 2000, I’ll take this deal. Hillary’s career is finished. Save the nation the circus act of prosecuting her.

Now CGI is another matter entirely. Justice needs to tear that place apart and frog march the entire lot of them into the dock.

It is amazing how the media filled weeks and months of the campaign reporting trivialities (poll number 175,042), but election night itself there were no on-site reports of Hillary. None. Zero.

One of the two key players in this drama is MIA election night and the media is fine with keeping us in the dark. We know they had reporters on the inside. We also know they chose not to print a word or were ordered to do so.

The scenario you presented probably would have been played out if it came down to one state, but with Pennsylvania and all of those Midwestern states turning red late in the evening it was obvious that Clinton was being repudiated even among a lot of Democrats.

I don't think there was any bargaining going on between the Trump and Clinton camps. Podesta was sent out there because Hillary was a disaster by that time.

She finally conceded when there was an almost unanimous outpouring of embarrassment and criticism of her in the media after that bizarre appearance by Podesta.

I also have this suspicion that Trump and Clinton never spoke with each other that night ... and that Huma Abedin (or someone else) actually did the deed herself.

I agree on hundred per cent. He went from “lock her up”, “Crooked Hillary” to “The Clintons are good people” to announcing he won’t pursue her email treason.

These people always say it would be bad for the country. I say what’s bad for the country is having laws for the rich and laws for the poor. And laws for a sailor who snaps a photo aboard ship to send to his mother.
