Yesterday President-elect Donald Trump officially confirmed he will not move forward with his campaign promise to call for a special prosecutor to investigate former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Trump says Hillary Clinton has "been through a lot" and that the Clintons are "good people" who he doesn't want to "hurt." On the campaign trail, he argued the opposite. As a reminder:
The move isn't going over so well with some of his most ardent supporters.

Ann Coulter:
Whoa! I thought we elected @realDonaldTrump president. Did we make him the FBI, & DOJ? His job is to pick those guys, not do their jobs. https://t.co/8JCQOO0dSF

Dinesh D'Souza:
IF WORDS MEAN SOMETHING: @realDonaldTrump can't insist throughout the campaign that she's #CrookedHillary & now say, "I was only kidding"
