I am continually astonished at the number of Freepers who continue to say that when it was Trump himself who ruled out pursuing a further investigation of the Clintons. And Trump makes himself look extremely disingenuous to those who know the facts.

We know the facts. But that doesn’t mean that Trump’s opinion can’t change.
After he won the election, he wanted to concentrate on his agenda - and that didn’t include tearing the country apart by holding Hillary to account and potentially sending her to jail. I didn’t like this at the time, but I understood it.
Since then, however, Hillary clearly has decided she’s not simply going to sit back and spend the rest of her days in her mansion, but is actively going to oppose Trump. Nor has the Democrat party gotten anywhere near wanting to come together as a country after the election, nor are they likely to. Trump couldn’t have known all of this when he tried to put the Clinton scandals in the past. But he knows it now, and that changes the game. Now he has no reason NOT to go after her.
I agree with that 100%, but that should have been a private conversation between Trump and Sessions, not a series of classless remarks to the press and in a string of tweets.
I hope the DOJ and FBI do pursue all those crimes, especially the Clintons and Lois Lerner and the IRS misdeeds, and all unmasking, etc.
But anyone who doesn't think all the trashing of Sessions in public is demoralizing others in the administration, or that it will make it harder to recruit good people for unfilled positions, doesn't anything about organizations or about people.
