Trump Won’t Prosecute Clinton

Today on the MSNBC program, Morning Joe, Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said that President-elect Trump will not pursue prosecution of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, when Trump is President.  While on the campaign, Trump repeatedly promised to appoint a special prosecutor to pursue the investigations, arguing that President Obama and the Clintons had used their influence to shape the Justice Department’s investigation. Additionally, during Trump rallies, it was common to hear the chant “Lock her up.”

During a 60 Minutes interview earlier this month, President-elect Trump said that prosecuting Clinton would not be a priority for his administration.
