So? Sounds like more revisionist history. It was a different era at that time and Trump wanted to move on and focus on on jobs and the economy. If it wasn’t for Trump you wouldn’t know 1/10 about the the corruption at the DOJ and the Bureau and the Democrat party media at that time. So spare me the sanctimonious BS and cherrypicked hacks.
I interpreted what he did there as signaling a “truce”.
I don’t agree with him doing this. I think it was a “Ok we’ll drop the ‘Put her in jail!’ thing and you’ll reciprocate with just normal partisan opposition.”
They didn’t and never intended to!
Trump was very very naive here. Just because they were nice to him previously at “parties” he thought he connected with them. He didn’t they only wanted to “connect” with his money! This where his vaunted “deal making” acumen gets him in trouble. You can’t make a deal where one side demands complete surrender! That’s not a deal, that’s capitulation!
Their side demands capitulation! There is no common ground for a deal!
