First, the president will have to go back on his statement of November 22 that he will not pursue any further investigation of Hillary. "She's been through enough." He made that statement, I believe, even before Sessions had been named as the AG nominee.
It is amazing how many Freepers think it was Sessions decision to not pursue Hillary. The facts on that have been posted numerous times, but it continues to be ignored as if it never happened.
FWIW, Trump has expressed that Sessions should have know then, that the campaign was going to be investigated, and that he (Sessions) would not be able to squelch that, becuase, as being part of the campaign, he would have the appearance of being partial so would either follow the conflict regulation, or flout it. If he knew that risk, Trump would have picked somebody else.
Read the last 20 trump tweets, including todays wherein he demands to know why clinton has not been investigated. His campaign statement that he had no desire to prosecute her has long been superceded by his tweets wanting to know why no action has been taken on the many obama clinto scandals.
Good point. But it appears Trump has changed his mind. So is Sessions up to the task?
I remember Trump saying he would not pursue Hillary. Has he changed his mind?
Show a little insight. Trump makes deals. When he publicly remarked that Hillary should get a pass, it was his way of offering a deal. In all but so many words, the deal was: be a gracious loser and let me MAGA in peace, and I will spare both you and the country the divisiveness of sending you to prison.
Hillary was either not intelligent enough to understand the deal she was being offered, or she understood it but spat on it. She joined the Resistance. That was a very stupid move. Trump is under no obligation to honor a spurned deal. He’ll motivate Sessions to investigate Hillary, or if that doesn’t work, he’ll replace Sessions and go from there.
Hillary had her chance and blew it.
They believe what they want to believe.
the president will have to go back on his statement of November 22 that he will not pursue any further investigation of Hillary. “She’s been through enough.”

Do you equate going after the CFF as pursuing Hillary? I don’t.
So Trump changed his mind and now wants Hillary investigated. Big Shi’ite. Is he not allowed to change his mind on ANY issue?? Nothing is written in stone re: political strategy.
